THE SOCIAL
CONTRACT
Society is established
based on the idea that man
by nature is good, and thus
man basically surrenders
his individual will to the will
of the people.

Jean Jacques Rousseau


individuals must surrender
a part of their freedom to
the state or sovereign. He
calls the sovereign
Leviathan. It stands on the
assumption that human
nature is basically selfish.

Thomas Hobbes
He stands on the
assumption that human
nature is not on a state of
war between good and
evil and the aim of
government is the
preservation of liberty,
property, life, and well-
being in general.

John Locke
Rawls redefined the social contract
and explained that human beings
approach social cooperation in a
rational manner in order to meet
their individual self-interests. He
imagined humans as having a "veil
of ignorance," or no knowledge of
one's own characteristics such as
gender, race or social status. .

JOHN RAWLS
described people's self-
interest as a significant
factor building and
maintaining societies.
People choose to cooperate
since it is beneficial to meet
their self- interests
