Answer: C) desire to escape a state of continuous social conflict

Step-by-step explanation:

Social Order is the set of structures that govern how individuals in a society interact. It is the presence of this structure, the institutions that enforce them as well as cultural norms that prevent a state of continuous chaos.

The English philosopher, Thomas Hobbes observed that without this order, society would cease to exist. To ensure the continuity of societies, its members give up some of their individual freedom or power to a higher authority which has the power to protect this order.
