Answer: Social contract has several crucial caracteristics: 1) emerge when the religious justification or interpretation of social order is exhausted/in crisis (Europe 17th century), consequently it is of profane or secular character 2) social contract theory is derived (always) from certain concept of human nature (Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau)....for ex. in Hobbes "homo homini lupus" (human nature) requires absolute monarchy, 3) supposes that social institutions or organization of these institutions determine the quality of social order, 4) society is compared to a machine (mechanistic metaphor of society).
Explanation: psychologically speaking, in 17th and 18th century or in 19th century (Marx) there is still no concept of unconscious and unconscious aspect of human nature. When concept of "unconscious" appears, things will change significantly because discovery of unconscious point at irrational aspect of human nature.

Explanation:
The Maya were native people of Mexico and Central America, while Aztec covered most of northern Mesoamerica between c.1345 and 1521 CE, whereas Inca flourished in ancient Peru between c.1400 and 1533 CE and extended across western South America.
The Maya were polytheistic but they did not have any particular God, while Aztec worship Huitzilopochtli as their main god and Inca worshiped Inti as their primary God.
The Maya created a writing system of hieroglyphics, the Aztec created the famous mask of Xuihetecuhtli that employed turquoise mosaic, and the Inca created a massive road network through mountains and rivers.
Maya builds towering temples and elaborate palaces, Aztec build their capital city Tenochtitlan on an island, while Inca constructed stone temples without using mortars yet the stone fit together so well that a knife would not fit between the stones.
The Maya used two calendars. One which was based on the solar year, while the other was a kind of sacred almanac. Maya also used a three-symbol numerical system that allowed them to record numbers into millions. While Aztec used a sacred calendar and a 365-day agricultural calendar, the Aztec writing system was based on glyphs, symbols that stand for sound or words. The Inca didn’t develop a writing system; their records were kept on bundles of knotted cords called quipus.
The Maya architects used local materials, like limestone, which they used at Palenque and Tikal, while metalwork was the most primary skill of the Aztec. Turquoise was mostly used with Aztec artists, the most common example is the decorated human skull which represents the God Tezcatlipoca. The Inca were affected by the art and techniques of Chimu civilization.
