I believe the answer is: His second treatise on government explained the social contracy theory of government and led to several revolutions.

According to john locke's social contract, if the government somehow fail to secure the natural rights and will of the citizens, than the citizens should have the power to change the leadership through legal methods. Which can we see in the democratic system today.
