2. That people should hold their governments accountable

Explanation:

  • In ethics and politics, the Enlightenment strongly opposed any form of legal inequality between people, advocating freedom of thought and press, religious tolerance, and in general what they thought was “reasonable”.
  • According to them, the form of government can be justified only before the court of the people who are governed, that is, they should consent to it, judging reasonably about the actions of the authorities and social order.
  • Thus, instead of lasting and unchanging foundations in tradition and faith, society is based on the variable consent of people.
