According to John Locke , an English political philosopher of the seventeenth century , all people have natural rights to life , liberty , and property . From this came the idea that people should be free to consent to being governed . In the eighteenth century , in Great Britain 's North American colonies , and later in France , this developed into the idea that people should govern themselves through elected representatives and not a king ; only those representatives chosen by the people had the right to make laws to govern them . Similarly , Adam Smith , a Scottish philosopher who was born nineteen years after Locke 's death , believed that all people should be free to acquire property in any way that they wished . Instead of being controlled by government , business , and industry , Smith argued , people should be allowed to operate as they wish and keep the proceeds of their work .
