The "state of nature" that Hobbes and Locke discuss seems like nothing more than speculation. Aren't evolutionary and cultural anthropology much more effective at describing this base humanity?

These notions didn't really exist when Locke and Hobbes were writing. State-of-nature is now an outdated notion in political philosophy, but it's important for students of political philosophy to be able to trace the development so they know what newer writers and thinkers are responding to.
