Answer:

A part of their personal freedom

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Social Contract Theory, Morality is really the collection of rules regulating actions that reasonable persons can follow, provided that they are also recognized by others.

People abandon a part of their individual liberty (such as the liberty of disorder ) when holding the balance of power and give politicians the power to enact laws and agreements.
