Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The ideas of natural rights and a social contract were created during the Englightenment. That government exists to protect the natural rights of the people and that the people should get rid of some freedoms in order for state protection. (For example, if you didn't live in society, one freedom you have is to murder someone else. But you need to sacrifice this freedom if you actually want to live in a society. Hence, there are rules that punish you for murder in countries.)
