THE BRITISH EMPIRE AND AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINES : DISPOSSESSING THE ABORIGINES AND THE THEORY OF PROPERTY RIGHTS IN LAND

1.美国印第安人在约翰·洛克的《财产论》一章中多次被提及，他们在他的财产权论点中发挥了关键作用。然而，我认为，他的理论的原型是美国清教徒剥夺美洲印第安人土地的理由。当白人试图为在九世纪剥夺澳大利亚原住民的土地辩护时，引用了洛克的财产权理论。然而，洛克的两篇论文并不是为了为英国的殖民政策辩护，尽管芭芭拉·阿奈尔声称如此。他的财产理论只受到西方知识传统的消极因素的影响。2.如果我们想要理解现代西方殖民主义，我们必须考察英国人关于他们剥夺爱尔兰人的话语。我们可以发现，这一话语是英国殖民政策的原型，也是驱逐美洲印第安人的正当理由。3.近代西方形成的殖民主义对日本的知识生活产生了相当大的影响。当我们加深我们的哲学知识时，我们很容易受到现代西方知性主义的副作用的影响。我们必须消除种族歧视的成分，以获得普遍和民主的思想。4.我们可以庆祝马博的决定，认为这是铲除殖民主义的伟大一步。澳大利亚高等法院于1996年6月在昆士兰州莫博州作出判决，判决确立了原住民所有权。这一判决与加拿大相同的法律补救措施，建立了西方知识分子的民主传统，没有种族歧视。

1.American Indians, who were repeatedly referred to in John Locke's "Of Property" chapter, playd the pivotal role in his argument of property rights. I think, however, that the prototype of his theory was American puritans' justifications for dispossessing American indians of their lands. Lockean theory of property rights was invoked when the white tried to justify disposseessing Australian aborigines of land in the ninteeeth century. Yet Locke's Two Treatises were not written as a defense of England's colonial policy, although Barbara Arneil claims so. His theory of property was only influenced by the negative elements of the Western intellectual tradition.2.If we want to understand the modern Western colonialism, we must investigate the discourse of the English on their dispossessing the Irish. We can find out that the discourse was the prototype of the English colonial policy and justification for disposseessing the American indians.3.Colonialism formed in modern Western has given considerable impact on Japanese intellectual life. When we deepen our philosophical knowledge, we are apt to be infected with the side-effects of modern Western intellectualism. We must wipe away the elements of racial discrimination to obtain a univeral and democratic thought.4.We may celebrate the Mabo decision as a great step to eradicate colonialism. The Australian High Court handed down its judgment in Mobo nu Queensland in June 1996, and the judgment established the native title. The judgment, with the identical legal remedies in Canada, has established a democatic tradition in Western intellectualism which is free from racial discrimination.
