The Theory of Social Contract, discussed by Thomas Hobbe in his magnum opus Leviathan (1651) argues in favour of the subjugation of the individual to the will of the State by popular consent. The State, in return, acts as the sole promoter of social protection, individual rights and order. Modern societies, however, are often faced with the choice between different organisations and institutions, tasked with serving similar objectives. Options are exercised on the evaluation of costs and benefits of alternatives, and such decisions depend on countries, their culture, socioeconomic conditions and moral values.
