What is one criticism often made of the social contract theory?
D. people are born or made subjects of a government--they don't get to choose.
<em>In that sense, critics would say it's not really a "contract," because people find themselves in it without ever being able to give their informed consent to be part of it. Supporters of the social contract theory would say that it is an implicit contract, entered into as persons born in a society make use of the resources of that society and choose to stay within it rather than leave.</em>
The first philosophers to consider the idea of a society contract believed that
A. an illegitimate government could be replaced, rightfully, by its citizens .
<em>Because the social contract means that government gets its authority from the consent of those who are governed, that also meant that the citizens have the right to replace a government that isn't carrying out its duties.</em>
What aspect of American democracy first emerged because of disparities in size between colonies that became the United States?
B. power sharing
<em>Think about how Congress eventually was constituted. In the House of Representatives, the number of representatives is based on each state's population (which gives larger power to the bigger, more populous states),. But in the Senate, each state (regardless of population) gets the same number of Senators (two). This is a way of giving smaller states a still sizable voice in government.</em>
