Enlightenment : The Social, Economic and Political forces.​

  • Individual liberty and religious tolerance, as opposed to absolute monarchy and the unchanging doctrines of the Church, were the two main tenets of the Enlightenment. The concepts of utility and sociability were also crucial in the dissemination of information that would better society as a whole.
  • The Enlightenment promoted science as a legitimate source of information, fought for human rights against oppression, and countered the excesses of the church. In addition, it brought us representative democracies, republics, modern medicine, and many other things.
  • Three key concepts that emerged from the Enlightenment were reason, individualism, and scepticism. The French philosopher Voltaire was one individual who upheld all three of these ideals.
  • American Enlightenment thought was punctuated by at least six ideas: deism, liberalism, republicanism, conservatism, toleration, and scientific advancement. Although many of these ideas were also held by European Enlightenment intellectuals, occasionally they assumed a distinctly American shape.
