Question

Which passage from the Declaration of Independence most clearly reflects

Answer 1

Answer:

O A. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it.

Explanation:

The Enlightenment was a political-cultural movement that expressed the needs and desires of bourgeois society of the eighteenth century, the "century of lights." This movement denounced errors and vices of the Old Regime, paving the way for various social movements. The Enlightenment preached the freedom of the individual and exalted the use of reasoning, and they were against any tyranny of the government and believed that the people should overthrow any system that tried to hinder their freedoms.

For this reason, we can conclude that among the options given in the question, the one that most clearly reflects the Enlightenment principle of addressing a broken social contract is the letter A.
