Which statement describes the social contract theory of the state’s origin?

The correct answer is a) The people grant power to a government for the well-being of all.

Explanation:

During the Age of Enlightenment, knowledge became essential for people; this led to the creation of different movements and theories. One of the theories is the social contract model.

This model postulates that man without a political limitation is driven solely by his conscience. However, humans seek order and protection, and to achieve it yield part of his power. This exchange can be conscious or unconscious.

The power that people provide to others creates the state, and this will be responsible for protecting their basic rights.
