Signed on the 2nd November 1917, the Balfour Declaration was written by the Foreign Secretary James Balfour and it was addressed to Baron Lionel Walter Rothschild, a Jewish banker. The ultimate goal of the declaration was to provide support for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. The declaration proved to be controversial and the fact that it is still divisive in the 21st century shows the ever lasting impact of Britain’s involvement in this deep-rooted issue. The main reasons why Britain issued the Balfour Declaration was due to own self interest in protecting the Suez Canal and the oilfields in Iraq, to secure Britain’s alliances during the First World War, a response to widespread sympathy for the Jewish population in Britain and a way of keeping out the Jewish population from Britain.

Gala2k [10]
Social contract theory basically says that all individuals are born equal, and provided a god given right to consent to be governed. American Government is based of this

Thomas Hobbes and John Locke said that we are selfish, individualistic, and constantly at war with each other, therefore we need to be controlled. 

Government is defined as the legitimate use of force to control human behavior within territorial boundaries, here comes in Hobbes and Locke.
Hobbes takes the part about controlling human behavior. While Locke takes the part of legitimate use of force, since force is not legitimate unless there is consent of the people. 

There are basically 3 goals of the government: 1) Maintain Order by protecting life and property. 2) Providing public goods, those which are typically not provided by the public sector, such as roads and education. 3) Promote Equality be it political, opportunist or outcome equality.
