Answer:

World War 1 had a positive effect on the mindset and attitude of African Americans because it made them to begin insisting more on their civil rights. Their men joined the army and could stand up to the whites to demand for their rights.

Explanation:

Chad Williams, the chairperson of the Department of African and American Studies at Brandeis University (as at 2014), had an interview with Brandeis Now where he revealed the influence of World War 1 in the mindset of African-Americans. According to him, World War 1 afforded black men the opportunity to work with the United States Military. This boosted their confidence and made it more possible for them to demand for their civil rights. The Double V campaign that signified the quest for victory home and abroad was one of such movements aimed at demanding the restoration of the rights of black men. This period also resulted in the migration of a lot African-Americans from the Southern part of the United States to the Northern part that was more accommodating.

Summarily, World War1had a positive influence on these group of people because  they became more ambitious and demanding of their rights in the society.

How does government and social contract connect?
Whitepunk [10]
A government is based on a social contract. The people give up some of their natural rights and in return the government guarantees them something. A social contract is an agreement between an authority and the people in which they come to terms on an agreement. Our government like most is based on this kind of agreement.

According to Thomas Hobbes’s concept of the social contract , what do people exchange for protection by the government?
Fynjy0 [20]

<u>Answer:</u>  Hobbes believed people exchange their <u>personal liberty</u>  for protection and security under a government.

<u>Explanation/detail:</u>

Thomas Hobbes published a famous work called <em>Leviathan</em> in 1651.  The title "Leviathan" comes from a biblical word for a great and mighty beast.  Hobbes believed government is formed by people for the sake of their personal security and stability in society.  In Hobbes view, once the people put a king (or other leader in power), then that leader needs to have supreme power (like a great and mighty beast).    Hobbes' view of the natural state of human beings without a government held that people are too divided and too volatile as individuals -- everyone looking out for his own interests.  So for security and stability, authority and the power of the law needs to be in the hands of a powerful ruler like a king or queen.  And so people willingly enter a "social contract" in which they live under a government that provides stability and security for society.

Probably the most famous set of lines from Hobbes' <em>Leviathan </em>book describes what he saw as the natural state of human affairs without government -- one in which every individual had freedom, but that meant it was a situation of "war of all against all," or we might say, every man for himself.  Hobbes wrote:

  • <em>In such condition, there is no place for industry; because the fruit thereof is uncertain: and consequently no culture of the earth; no navigation, nor use of the commodities that may be imported by sea; no commodious building; no instruments of moving, and removing, such things as require much force; no knowledge of the face of the earth; no account of time; no arts; no letters; no society; and which is </em><em>worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short.</em>
