Digiron [165]

The author defined a social contract as an agreement between the ruled and their rulers, in which all individuals in a society cede their natural rights (life, liberty, property, etc.) to an absolute government, even meaning that individuals would have to accept abuses of power. Through the contract people could live better and maintain peace, receive protection and avoid conflict by the establishment of a civil society.
