Details

Titled after the biblical Leviathan, this book concerns the structure of society and legitimate government and is regarded as one of the earliest and most influential examples of social contract theory. Thomas Hobbes argues for a social contract and rule by an absolute sovereign. Hobbes wrote that chaos or civil war or situations identified with a state of nature and the famous motto bellum omnium contra omnes ("the war of all against all") or could only be averted by strong central government.
