Thomas hobbes believed that citizens must in exchange for order.

Thomas Hobbes believed that citizens must give up some of their liberties in exchange for order. Hobbes is best known for publishing his work titled "The Leviathan", which proposed the concept of social contract. Social contract argues that citizens must sacrifice some of their liberties to government in order to obtain protection of their other rights and privileges. In Leviathan, Hobbes proposes what society would be like without government, and that it would be one society with violence and a desire for protection of property and safety. In order to obtain these, citizens must sacrifice their rights by following certain laws in order to obtain a sense of order and peace within a structured society.
