- 4) "Linking Governments and Citizens through a social contract": The <em>"Theory of the Social Contract"</em> is based makes a distinction between <em>civil society</em> and <em>state</em>. The state´s authority is based on the power consented by the people who are governed, which confirm the civil society.

I literally don't have any exact answers, so dm me or smth if this is wrong with A B C D or smth, but here:
During reconstruction, former confederate generals were unsupportive and extremely racist.

But still, The Ku Klux Klan formed, and Black Codes and Jim Crow laws formed with it once northern troops were sent away.
The government system of the Soviet Union during Cold War was communism, which basically abolishes the right of an individual to own a private property. This means that the government has the sole control in all of its resources, thus a greater chance of accumulating and safe-keeping of wealth. Furthermore, during those times war among nations was already at a set off so there was a need to advance their artillery system and other equipment needed to armed themselves in case of attacks. Therefore, most of their resources went to defense spending.
This lead to the understanding among the Soviet Union's people that the current government system was already inefficient and is not viable to sustain the needs of their country. People then demanded a change.
