Answer:

C. They want to escape the unpleasantness of living in a state of nature.

Explanation:

Thomas Hobbes was an English philosopher considered one of the founders of modern political philosophy. His best known work is the Leviathan (1651), where he laid the foundations of contractarian theory, of great influence in the development of Western political philosophy. In addition to the philosophical field, he worked in other fields of knowledge such as history, ethics, theology, geometry or physics.

He is considered the theoretician par excellence of political absolutism, although in his thought appear fundamental concepts of liberalism such as the right of the individual, the natural equality of people, the conventional nature of the State (which will lead to the subsequent distinction between this and society civil), the representative and popular legitimacy of political power (since it can be revoked if it does not guarantee the protection of its subordinates), etc. His conception of the human being as equally dependent on the laws of matter and movement (materialism) continues to enjoy great influence; as well as the notion of human cooperation based on personal interest.

Which statement does not reflect a method that whites used to solve Indian conflicts?
viktelen [127]
C. They were careful to stay off Native American lands.

Native Americans did not have the same concept of land and property ownerships as the colonists. That made the conflicts increasingly difficult as settlers encroached on Native American lands.
