According to Hobbes, what is the primary purpose of the social contract?

to protect rights
to remove rights
to reduce liberty
to expand liberty

Answer 1

I believe it is to remove rights because when the men are given liberty that means they are given freedom and no obligation and responsibility to their actions therefore to remove their rights it makes them more aware and more afraid of getting in trouble so they choose to come together with one another because they share common ground.

I believe your answer will be to remove rights.
