1 Unless otherwise indicated, page numbers in parentheses are references to Tully's An Approach to Political Philosophy. References to Locke's An Essay concerning Human Understanding (Essay), edited by Nidditch, P. H. (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1975),Google Scholar will be by book, chapter, and section. References to Locke's Two Treatises on Government (TT), edited by Laslett, Peter (New York: Mentor Books, 1963), will be by treatise and section.Google Scholar

3 In fairness it should be acknowledged that Locke's own use of the term 'property' is ambiguous. While the broad notion of property for which Tully argues in Chapter 4 is found in Two Treatises 2:123, at other points Locke seems concerned solely with real property. See, for example, TT 2:120.
