Question

what is the Social Contract Theory? What are at least two of your personal freedoms that you have given up to be a part of this social contract and what are two things you receive in return?

Answer 1

Answer:

Social contract theory, nearly as old as philosophy itself, is the view that persons’ moral and/or political obligations are dependent upon a contract or agreement among them to form the society in which they live. Socrates uses something quite like a social contract argument to explain to Crito why he must remain in prison and accept the death penalty.
