Beckett Rueda

Summer Research Fellow

Beckett Rueda is a Ph.D. student in government at UT-Austin. He researches the conflict between divine revelation and secular authority in the foundation of liberalism with a focus on John Locke. His current project treats the relationship between divine and civil authority in Locke’s English Tract. It is the first part of a larger investigation into the way that Locke’s theological and epistemological writings illuminate and influence his political theory.
