| Video Discription | The Social Contract is a foundational idea in the history of political philosophy. Modern democracies are largely based on social contract theory: the theory that laws and governments are created through agreements between free, rational, and self-interested individuals. In this video I discuss the most influential social contract theorists: Thomas Hobbes, John Locke, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. You’ll learn about their various contributions to social contract theory, and about the differences between them. But we’ll also discuss some problems with social contract theory. For starters, when did we sign this social contract? Is the social contract real? Or is it rather a metaphor that helps us think and talk about political community. Towards the end of this video we’ll hear from Virginia Held, a twentieth-century feminist philosopher who mounts some potent critique of social contract theory and offers up an alternative way of conceptualizing political obligations. #socialcontract #Hobbes #Locke #Rousseau #Held ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 📗 CONNECT WITH ME!
