A social contract is an agreement between <u>the ruled and their rulers or the government and the people.</u>
In political philosophy the concept of the social contract was first fully developed by the English philosopher Thomas Hobbes in his book named "Leviathan: The Matter, Form, and Power of a Commonwealth, Ecclesiastical and Civil" (1651).
The author defined a social contract as an agreement between the ruled and their rulers, in which all individuals in a society cede their natural rights (life, liberty, property, etc.) to an absolute government, even meaning that individuals would have to accept abuses of power. Through the contract people could live better and maintain peace, receive protection and avoid conflict by the establishment of a civil society.

The effects of the Constitution were all of the above in because it:
- a. Created national political institutions
- b. Made possible a national economic market by giving Congress the power over tariffs, interstate commerce, and coining money, among others
- c. Reduced the powers of the states
The Constitution was created because the previous constitution, the Articles of Confederation, had created a very <u>weak federal government. </u>This was rectified by the Constitution which:
- Created Congress - Congress is a national political institution that is in charge of making laws of the United States amongst other things.
- Created a <u>national economic market </u>- Congress got powers over important economic decisions such as interstate commerce and printing currency.
- <u>Reduced </u><u>state </u><u>powers</u> - State law was placed under federal law to ensure that the federal government could better take care of all Americans.
In conclusion, the Constitution contributed to the unity of the United States by creating Congress, giving Congress wide powers and curtailing the powers of the states.
