The purpose of Blackstone's commentaries on the laws of England was to provide a source of common law that most people could read. The work was divided into four volumes: the rights of persons, the rights of things, private wrongs and public wrongs. They met a need for laws and rules at a time when both of these were very skewed and unclear. Blackstone's commentaries was important to the development of English law and the development of the American legal system.

The correct answer is " Citizens would be able to form governments that ensure their interests."

The idea of a social contract involves citizens of a country giving up some of their individual liberties (aka freedoms) so that the government can make society safer. Hobbes argued that this social contract, despite the fact that it limits individual freedoms, will benefit citizens because they have the opportunity to pick their leaders who will make laws based around their wants/needs.
