Question

According to Hobbes, what is the primary purpose of the social contract?

Answer 1

Thomas Hobbes explained that people make social contracts, create laws and ordinances because they understand that an exact and stable society is better to one in the "state of nature." As Hobbes thought of it, the state of nature was a state in which all people are constantly at war with one another, owing to the flaws of human nature and the deficiency of any authority characters.
