Hobbes and Rousseau: An Analysis of Political Values
This five page graduate paper examines why Thomas Hobbes and Jean Jacques Rousseau both come to the conclusion that, in some sense, a social contract needs to be formed in order to reduce the negative aspects of humanity and maximize the positive aspects. Hobbes enumerated which social problems his envisioned social contract was designed to resolve in Leviathan, in which he described the autocratic characteristics of a sovereign and the need for a strong king or queen.
