discuss the social contract theory proposed by John locke
Answers
Explanation:
Locke's Social Contract was devoted to sovereignty and law. Sovereignty derived from the people's will. This will remained with the people. He argued that sovereignty did not reside in the state but with the people, and that the state was supreme, but only if it was bound by civil and natural law.

Answer:John locke’s theory of social contract.
Explanation:John locke’s version of social contract theory is striking in saying that the only right people give up in order to enter into civil society and its benefits is the ‘right to punish other people for violating rights’. No other rights are given up,only the right to be a vigilante.
Even the right to be vigilante returns to the individual if the government breaks the social contract by not punishing those who violate rights.
