Two tracts on government

the long version

First English publication of John Locke's earliest writings on politics ... Locke gave no title to his papers on indifferent things. Their only heading is a statement of the problem discussed. Some convenient short title was required and I have named them Locke's Tracts on Government." The first tract bears the heading: Question: Whether the Civil Magistrate may lawfully impose and determine the use of indifferent things in reference to Religious Worship. The second tract bears the heading: An Magistratus Civilis possit res adiaphoras in divini cultus ritus asciscere easque populo imponere? Affirmatur. - 1660.
