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>

Answer:

Ancient Roman society changed out of all recognition as the Romans conquered first Italy and then the Mediterranean world, and the very notion of what it was to be a Roman came to embrace all the peoples of the empire.

As in all pre-modern societies the economic base of the Roman society at all stages of its history remained agriculture; but on top of this an ever-more elaborate social organization grew up, to create one of the largest and most complex societies in the pre-industrial world.

Predict what events/actions will be central to the Reconstruction time period. Use evidence from the image to support your claim
gregori [183]

This political cartoon (<em>"Awkward Collision on the Grand Trunk Columbia"</em>) depicts a staunch President Andrew Johnson and Congressman Thaddeus Stevens are having a standoff between the two trains, "President," and "Congress."

You can barely see it, but at the bottom of the political cartoon it says:

[ A.J. (Driver of Engine ‘President’) – “Look here! One of us has got to back." Thaddeus (Driver of Engine ‘Congress’) – "Well, it ain’t me that going to do it – you bet!” ]

Johnson and Stevens both had a staunch position on their reconstruction policies, and were unwilling to compromise, this eventually led to Johnson's impeachment.

** Background information about Thaddeus Stevens:

Thaddeus Stevens was considered a radicial republican during the reconstruction era, and he was an early critic of Johnson's plan for reconstruction (he eventually became the leader in the effort to impeach Johnson).

**

Stevens was an advocate of treating southern states as "conquered provinces." He encouraged strong, sweeping action by the federal government to revolutionize the institutions and culture that bolstered white supremacy in the south.

Stevens supported the 14th amendment and an unsuccessful plan to confiscate plantations and redistribute the land to former slaves.

Johnson's plan was similar to Lincoln's, except he wanted 10% of the southerners (that voted in 1860) to give an oath of loyalty to him. <u>Basically, Johnson's reconstruction plan was to eventually forgive the Confederates of their war crimes. </u>

<u />

** More information about Johnson's reconstruction plan:

The Confederate states were required to uphold the 13th Amendment, swear loyalty to the Union, and pay off their war debt. Then they would rewrite their state constitutions, hold elections, and begin sending representatives to Washington. Under the plan, Confederate leaders would have to apply directly to President Johnson in order to request pardon. Johnson's last pardon was given to former President Jefferson Davis (of the Confederacy) on December 25th, 1868.

malfutka [58]

A Bachelor of Arts typically leads to lifetime earnings four times greater than that of a high school graduate. I believe a Bachelor of Science is more, then a Masters and finally a Professional degree.
