Hobbes took a rather dim view: life is nasty brutish and short. resources are limited, and any single person is equally vulnerable to injury, death, or demise. Therefore the strongest most efficient government is necessary to protect its citizenry. Hence a monarch with dictatorial powers
Locke took a different view. Rather than each person being equally vulnerable to demise, each person, for Locke, was equally free and sovereign. And there is an abundance of resources (food, land) that one need only mix the labor with in order to own. Locke would want to form a democratic government because of the practical difficulty of each person being their own law enforcement, labor force, in short a government unto themselves.
