What rights does Hobbes believe it is never rational to abandon
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

For many centuries, natural law was recognized as a type of higher law that spelled out universal truths for the moral ordering of society based on a rational understanding of human nature. As a higher moral law, it gave citizens a standard for determining if the written laws and customs of their nation or any other nation were just or unjust, right or wrong, humane or inhumane. Today, natural law is not discussed very much, at least not explicitly. When mentioned at all, it is usually rejected as dangerous because it undermines existing laws or as intolerant because it is contrary to “multiculturalism,” which requires the non-judgmental acceptance of other cultures.

This negative view of natural law can be traced to Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679), whose writings are largely devoted to showing the anarchy and civil wars caused by appeals to natural and divine laws above the will of the sovereign. Hobbes rejected traditional higher law doctrines and encouraged people to accept the established laws and customs of their nations, even if they seemed oppressive, for the sake of civil peace and security. His critique has been a leading cause of the demise of natural law and the acceptance of positive law as the only reliable guide for political authority.

One may be equally surprised to learn, however, that many people today embrace a different (and seemingly contradictory) view of natural law, and this too is traceable to Thomas Hobbes. For example, when conscientious people are confronted with violations of human rights—as in religious theocracies that violate women’s rights or in countries that allow sweatshops to trample on worker’s rights—they feel compelled to protest the injustice of those practices and to change them for the better. The protesters usually deny that they are following natural law, but they obviously are asserting a belief in universal moral truths that are grounded in human nature—in this case, the natural equality of human beings that underlies human rights. This understanding of higher law originates with Hobbes because he was largely responsible for transforming classical natural law into modern natural rights, thereby beginning the “human rights revolution” in thinking on natural law. How is it possible for Hobbes and his followers to embrace seemingly contradictory views of natural law, rejecting one form as intolerant, self-righteous, and anarchical, while embracing another form as the universal ideal of social justice? Let us turn to Hobbes for an answer to this puzzle, and, in so doing, uncover the sources of our modern conceptions of law, rights, and justice.

Ann [662]

Answer:

3. basic; growth                                

Explanation:

Abraham Maslow has given the hierarchy of needs theory in which he has mentioned five distinct stages and explained that an individual needs to fulfil all the previous needs before moving on to the next or upper stages.

Basic needs: In the hierarchy of needs, all other needs except the self-actualization are referred to as the basic needs including the physiological, safety, love and belonging, and esteem needs.

Growth needs: Once the individual has fulfilled all the basic needs then he or she desires to complete the growth needs i.e, the self-actualization.

In the question above, Anita is focused on the basic needs and her friends are focusing on the growth needs.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

B. providing a framework for government

Explanation:

A country is made up of individuals of different races, colors, backgrounds, and classes. Not everyone can take part in government affairs. There is, however, a need to have organized bodies that will represent the interest of the people.

Thus the United States Constitution provides for a regulated system of government by establishing the three branches of government. They are; the Executive, Legislature and Judiciary. According to the Constitution, the Legislative branch of government is made up of the Senate and House of Representatives. This branch of government is charged with the powers to make laws.  Through these bodies, the wishes of the people come to life.
