Answer:

people who demanded the emancipation of slaves.

Abolitionism refers to the movement in the United States to end slavery. Abolitionism became particularly strong with Enlightenment, as many thinkers saw slavery as contrary to its ideals.

Immediately after the Revolutionary War, many Northern states passed legislation abolishing slavery. However, the process was slower in Southern states. Prior to the Civil War, abolitionists campaigned for the emancipation of slaves in the South, and as a result of the way, slavery was declared unconstitutional in 1865.

John Locke believed there was a social contract between a government and its people. What were the details of this contract?
mina [271]

Answer:

The answer is letter A. Citizens should agree to obey their government as long as the government protected their natural rights.

Explanation:

John Locke was an influential philosopher, political theorist and physician of the <em>17th century.</em> He was known for his "Social Contract theory" which states that <u>the citizens in the country can stop following or obeying their government if it fails to secure the people's natural rights. </u>His theory supported the<em> state or people, rather than the government. </em>

He also focused on the <em>people's natural rights</em> by saying that the people have the right to overthrow the government, when the need arises. It also means that the government cannot have an absolute control over the people. They have to do their obligations to the citizens, so that the citizens will also do their obligations to the government.
