Since it tells you the answer has to be a political theory, you can rule out A and B.
Since C implicates kings' and queens' rights, you can eliminate that as well, leaving you with D, which makes sense. A social contract is an agreement between people regulating laws and fairly appointing them, all according to the people. Thus, D is the right answer.
