Identify the concept Social Contract. A. Conservatism stresses a maintenance of established institutions, and prefer actions that generate gradual development as opposed to abrupt changes (key word search "Edmund Burke" for more historical background). In contrast with Anarchists, Conservatists generally see the government as a positive force. It brings order out of chaos, institutes laws to end the "war of all against all", encourages moral virtue while punishing vice, and respects tradition.

B. There are a group of political philosophies that are in opposition to the existence of a government. Anarchism and Marxism are two of the more well known. Philosophers and practitioners of this group call attention to a point that governments as well as private property began from the authority of warlords and paltry tyrants who conquered peoples and territories. They began exercising authority over their vanquished.

C. Modern democracy and most forms of socialism are built upon it. It embraces a concept that governments are formed by people in order to provide for collective needs (such as education, public and private, and poverty) that cannot be properly fulfilled using purely individual resources.

D. This philosophy assumes that human beings are born with certain natural rights, and governments are established strictly for the purpose of protecting those rights. Liberalism generally distinguish three or four fundamental natural rights:
a right to life
a right to liberty
a right to property
a right to the pursuit of happiness.

the vast majority of ballots have been counted nearly two weeks after one of the biggest political upsets in modern u.s. history catapulted donald trump to the presidency.

estimates show more than 58 percent of eligible voters went to the polls during the 2016 election, nearly breaking even with the turnout rate set during the last presidential election in 2012, even as the final tallies in states like california continue to be calculated, according to statistics collected by the u.s. elections project.

but among those figures were stark contrasts in key states that swing the election to trump — in ohio, wisconsin, iowa, michigan and elsewhere — indicating the president-elect’s leap from long-shot candidate to the most powerful political position in the world may have happened in part because of apathy toward hillary clinton’s candidacy, especially among the democratic base, several political scientists and organizations monitoring voter turnout told the pbs newshour.

while clinton is leading the popular vote by more than 1.5 million over trump as of sunday, she trails president obama’s 2012 totals by more than 2 million ballots — a chasm that may have cost her the election, said david becker, co-founder of the center for election and innovation and research.

“several million voters didn’t come out to vote,” becker said. “which is telling me that this idea of the trump wave, a huge number of voters shifting over to trump, is certainly not the story.”
