  • Natural Rights:LifeLibertyProperty
  • Rulers must protect all three of the rights.

  • The Social Contract Theory
  • Oh yes, and of course deism may apply!
  • People must significantly rely on a contract.
  • Everyone is born with NATURAL RIGHTS!
  • Hobbes and Locke both had very different ideas for the social contract.

  • Though they talk of disagreement they eventually realized that they were speaking of the same idea, just in different words. Men must be in pursuit of peace.
