Which of the following best represents locke’s concept of the social contract? citizens agree to obey their government in return for protection of their natural rights. the government holds absolute authority and should determine all of the rights of its citizens. citizens should not have to obey their government and should only be concerned with individual rights. kings, queens, and other royals must obey the same laws as the citizens of a country.

"Citizens agree to obey their government in return for protection of their natural rights."

John Locke believed that citizens give up some of their freedom in return for the collective protection of natural rights. This influenced thinkers such as Thomas Jefferson as he considered what the American colonies relationship with the British Crown should be and what the British Crown ought to be doing in return for its citizens in the colonies.

c would be the correct !

hope this !
