"A government operates with the goal of promoting human rights" is based on John Locke's definition of the social contract.

<u>Option: C</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The concept of social contracts states "that people work together in society according to an arrangement that determines moral and political rules of behaviour". Number of individuals seem to have faith that if we expend a life by a social agreement, we should live by our own choices but morally rather than just because it is predicted of a divine being.

John Locke's interpretation of the theory of social contracts hits in suggesting that the only right individual to give up in order to join civil society and its rewards is the right to punish others for violating their rights.

All of this enabled the US to catapult itself and become a world power.
