According to Thomas Hobbes’s concept of the social contract , what do people exchange for protection by the government?
Fynjy0 [20]

<u>Answer:</u>  Hobbes believed people exchange their <u>personal liberty</u>  for protection and security under a government.

<u>Explanation/detail:</u>

Thomas Hobbes published a famous work called <em>Leviathan</em> in 1651.  The title "Leviathan" comes from a biblical word for a great and mighty beast.  Hobbes believed government is formed by people for the sake of their personal security and stability in society.  In Hobbes view, once the people put a king (or other leader in power), then that leader needs to have supreme power (like a great and mighty beast).    Hobbes' view of the natural state of human beings without a government held that people are too divided and too volatile as individuals -- everyone looking out for his own interests.  So for security and stability, authority and the power of the law needs to be in the hands of a powerful ruler like a king or queen.  And so people willingly enter a "social contract" in which they live under a government that provides stability and security for society.

Probably the most famous set of lines from Hobbes' <em>Leviathan </em>book describes what he saw as the natural state of human affairs without government -- one in which every individual had freedom, but that meant it was a situation of "war of all against all," or we might say, every man for himself.  Hobbes wrote:

  • <em>In such condition, there is no place for industry; because the fruit thereof is uncertain: and consequently no culture of the earth; no navigation, nor use of the commodities that may be imported by sea; no commodious building; no instruments of moving, and removing, such things as require much force; no knowledge of the face of the earth; no account of time; no arts; no letters; no society; and which is </em><em>worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.</em>

Which of the following was a result of the British Enclosure Movement?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Result of the British Enclosure Movement was Small farmers moved to cities

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Agricultural Revolution held in Britain was the British Enclosure Movement. In 1700 the British government started taking the communal land and making it privatized. At first the communal land was common to the public where everyone used for grazing.

But during British enclosure the pieces of lands from poor farmers were taken and cultivation on rotation basis was done in the large accumulated land. The wealthy farmers hence had a dramatized increase in food production. They also started industries and mines which later led to the industrial revolution. The small farmers were forced to move to cities.
