Abstract
- The article provides an overview of the theory of multinationality of Lord Acton. It states that the theory gains both from Aristotle and Christian thinkers of the Middle Ages and early modern period, in which Acton embraced a patently individualistic position believing that only individual man possesses moral and political rights. Moreover, it noted that the theory emerges from Acton's view of society. Further, development of the theory is also mentioned.
