Can some tell me what Thomas Hobbes believe in give me like 4/5 paragraphs
suter [353]

Thomas Hobbes was an early modern philosopher who put forth the idea of a "social contract" -- that governments are formed by the will of the people.  This was different than previous views which held that governments (kings) got their authority directly from God.

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.

Probably the most famous set of lines from Hobbes' Leviathan book describes what he saw as the natural state of human affairs without government -- one in which every individual had freedom, but that meant it was a situation of "war of all against all," or we might say, every man for himself.  Hobbes wrote:

  • <em>In such condition, there is no place for industry; because the fruit thereof is uncertain: and consequently no culture of the earth; no navigation, nor use of the commodities that may be imported by sea; no commodious building; no instruments of moving, and removing, such things as require much force; no knowledge of the face of the earth; no account of time; no arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short. </em>

Why was the Battle of New Orleans in the War of 1812 sometimes thought of as a "meaningless" American victory?lol nvm
MrRissso [65]

A couple of weeks before the Battle of New Orleans, the U.S. and British governments had negotiated and signed a peace treaty that put an effective end to the war between the two countries. Given that news from Europe took about a month to reach the U.S., both the U.S. soldiers led by General Andrew Jackson and the Red Coats led by General Sir Edward Pakenham was a pointless confrontation. A few weeks after the resounding U.S. victory (only 13 men were killed on the U.S. side and 285 on the British side), Jackson and his men got news of the peace treaty signed before their feat of arms.
