Answer:  Absolute monarchy

<u>Explanation:</u>

Thomas Hobbes pointed to the social contract as the source of a government's authority, saying that a ruler got his power from the people over whom he ruled, not directly from God. But Hobbes' argument still supported a strong monarch style of government for the sake of a country's security and stability.  Whoever was put in charge of government needed to have absolute power, in his view.  Thomas Hobbes published his political theory in <em>Leviathan</em>  in 1651, following the chaos and destruction of the English Civil War.  He saw human beings as naturally suspicious of one another, in competition with each other, and evil toward one another as a result.  Forming a government meant giving up personal liberty, but gaining security against what would otherwise be a situation of every person at war with every other person.  So once the people gave power to a monarch, then that ruler needed to have absolute authority in order to maintain security and stability in the social order.

According to douglass, what knowledge was kept from slaves?
Natalija [7]
According to Douglass, the knowledge that was kept from the slaves was the knowledge of their own identity, the knowledge about themselves. They do not know about their parentage, as well as their birthdays. They do not know any knowledge about their personal background and these kept them from acquiring their own education, and learning how to read and write. Hope this answers your question.
