Social contract theory

Social contract theory was argued by English philosophers such as Thomas Hobbes and John Locke in the 17th century.  American founding fathers took a number of their ideas from the political philosophy of John Locke.  Locke's <em>First Treatise on Civil Government </em>debunked the idea of "divine right monarchy."  His <em>Second Treatise on Civil Government </em>put forth his social contract theory and design for a representative form of government.
