Answer: Hobbes
Explanation:
Personally, I think it a bit unfair to link Hobbes with the views of Herbert Spencer, who put forth the theory that became known as "Social Darwinism." I would cite also an article by Peter Amato in <em>Minerva - An Internet Journal of Philosophy</em> (Vol. 6 2002). But if the choice is between Hobbes and Locke, it's easier to make a "Social Darwinism" comparison or connection with the theories of Hobbes.
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.
The part of Hobbes that would have a similarity to Social Darwinism is that idea that humans by nature are each looking out for their own interest. "Survival of the fittest" was the term that Herbert Spencer used in applying evolutionary theory to how human beings in society and different human societies function toward one another. In "Progress: Its Law and Its Cause"( 1857), Herbert Spencer wrote: "The advance from the simple to the complex, through a process of successive differentiations ... is seen in the evolution of Humanity, whether contemplated in the civilized individual, or in the aggregation of races; it is seen in the evolution of Society in respect both of its political and economical organization." In his book, <em>Principles of Biology </em>(1864), Spencer stated even more fully the idea of humans being in competition with each other by nature, with the strongest forms surviving. He wrote: "This survival of the fittest, which I have here sought to express in mechanical terms, is that which Mr. Darwin has called 'natural selection', or the preservation of favored races in the struggle for life."
Answer:
<em>Education is of prime importance in every individual’s life. Education is often looked upon as the sole key to a bright and comfortable future for any child. According to many experts, education can be defined as the process through which learning is facilitated. It can also be defined as the process of acquiring different skills, knowledge, habits, values, and beliefs regarding all sorts of different topics. On the other hand, moral education can be defined as a type of teaching which is aimed at developing children who are good, moral, mannered, civic, non-bullying, behaved, critical, healthy, successful, compliant, tradition, and have socially acceptable qualities. Moral education is one of the oldest fields of teaching which includes a range of topics like life skill education, health education, violence prevention education, ethical reasoning, cognitive development, and many other topics. There are many benefits or reasons why moral education is important.</em>
<span>The US patriot act violates the civil liberties of the American people by giving the government opportunity and rights to treat citizens in many undignified and uncouth ways. It changed the nations ranking from one of the most free countries in the world, to somewhere in the 40th percentile. The bill allows for too broad of a scope of power to federal authorities, violating the rights to privacy among many other civil rights. Because of this I feel the War on Terrorism has greatly overstepped appropriate boundaries of civil liberties, and human rights. I am not sure how they should go about reconciling this issue, but as sure as they should, its likely they won't because government enjoys having more power than the people.</span>
The independent variable is the temperature.
The study aims to assess how the temperature level affects another variable, that, in turn, will be the dependent variable: the mood of the participants. The aim of the study is to conclude whether it is possible or not to infer causality between those two, in other words, to see whether different levels of temperature (<em>the cause</em>), trigger the emergence of a certain type of mood <em>(the effect).</em>
