THIS IS NOT A COMPARE AND CONTRAST PAPER
Talk about Hobbes and Locke who are social contract theorists. Then address all of the following in a 500 to 600 word length paper: Include a intro paragraph about what the essay is about and why it is important and the main points of the essay and include transition and first sentences before each paragraph and add a conclusion wrapping up the essay and restating the main points.
Briefly explain the ideal forms of government and its powers and responsibilities, according to the two theorists.
Your papers should explain why the particular state of nature leads to the kind of government your authors defend.
Briefly explain (no more than 1 paragraph at the end of the paper) which theorist you believe speaks to the true nature of
man and/or government.
Briefly summarize two theorists’ conception of the state of nature. Explain your answers using the relevant texts as evidence. Note that you have to stick with the same two theorists for the entirety of the paper.
Guidelines:
500-600 words of actual content. You must stick to the word range. If you go over, I will only read up to 500 words. If you are under, you will lose points in most of the rubric categories since you did not provide sufficient evidence to back your ideas. I am enforcing the word limit since finding ways to concisely convey your ideas is essential in academia and in the real world.
To receive a passing grade on papers, you must pull from the primary source that is relevant to the prompt.
For these papers, you do not have to use a formatting style (like APA). However, you must be very precise when referencing all texts. Since versions of the primary sources vary, do not give page #s. Instead, refer to the Book/Part/Chapter you are pulling from. Example: (Politics, Book I, Part II).
