i believe the answer is: Locke's Second Treatise of Government

Through the second Treatise, Locke introduced the idea that claims civil society was created in order to give protection for the property.

This mean that civil society should prevent the government from having control upon the resources in the society so people could easily overthrew them in case the government started to become tyrannical.
