3 0

In the Constitution, slave importation was actually set to end in the early 1800s. Many had hoped this would end the practice as no more slaves could be brought in. However, there was nothing about the children of slaves. The next idea was to contain the practice of slavery. This was done thru different actions like the Missouri Compromise of 1820, the Compromise of 1850, and the Wilmot Proviso. While all of these were going on there were also people who wanted the entire practice completely banned and labeled illegal.

Answer:

The third sentence is a clear example of the concept of social contract.

Explanation:

The idea of social contract became important during the Enlightenment because it established that the power lies in the people and not in the figurehead of government. The French writer Rousseau is one of the Enlightenment thinkers that popularized the term. This concept goes on to explain that if the government is not serving its people and is not acting in the people's best interest, then the people have the right to remove it and place a new government in its place. This can clearly be seen in the third sentence.
