<u>Yes, if he breaks any of the laws of nature, because these are the moral laws for Hobbes. </u>

Violating the laws of nature can be not performing one's valid pacts as a ruler or not seeking peace when others want to do so and also not being grateful.

Moral limits that Hobbes places on the ruler are useless, because when we make a pact with the ruler, we give all of our natural rights away to the sovereign.

We cannot question/revolt because they've our rights.

Can only act if we are in danger ⇒ right to self - defense

The effort needed by all sectors of a society during a conflict is called the Holocaust. total war. rationing. a skirmish.
babymother [125]
A Holocaust was the genocide on the Jewish population during the Second World War- not what the question is asking for.

Rationing refers to the division of goods among people - it can be during the time of conflict but it was also present during socialism

A skirmish is a short battle.

So the best answer is a total war: a war in which the whole society is involved and needs to give up on some things for the war effort!
