7 0

It became possible to challenge Jim Crow laws more successfully after 1955 following the outcome of the <em>Brown Vs. The Board of Education's decision</em> declared racial segregation as a violation of the 14th Amendment.

Jim Crow laws were state laws that entrenched racial segregation after the <em>Plessy Vs. Fergusson's</em> Supreme Court ruling upheld the constitutionality of racial segregation under the <em>“separate but equal” doctrine</em>.

The Jim Crow laws treated non-Whites as second-class citizens of America. They were enacted after Reconstruction.

Thus, challenging Jim Crow laws became more successful after 1955 because the Supreme Court declared that racial segregation violated the 14th Amendment.

Answer: state of nature / social contract

Explanation:

Theorists like Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, developed different theories about the state of nature and the social contract, although their underlying ideas shared some similarities.

The state of nature refers to a real or hypothetical condition of humanity before any political association, and the social contract would be also either a real or hypothetical understanding about the rights and duties of the rulers and the ruled people.
