Citizens entrust their human and natural rights to a government that is bound to protect and secure them with their own laws, and sometimes citizens sacrifice those same rights for the sake of protecting such a civil state and government

Explanation: Social contract theory is about an agreement between a government and a citizen under which citizens should sacrifice and subordinate some of their rights to government and thus help enforce a civil government that in turn should respect and honour both civil and natural rights of citizens who entrusted it with the mandate to govern and to protect those same trusted rights. The rights that are vested in the government to protect them are the same rights that have been mentioned in this matter, which are the natural rights inherent in every human being, life, freedom and the pursuit if personal happiness.

These are natural rights on the basis of which all people are equal, and that is why all people have civil rights to form a civil government, not to be ruled by one man, a king of his own volition and who does not protect those same human rights of citizens. So people have civil rights to form a civil government that will protect their natural rights. In addition, citizens have a civil duty, not just rights, to help such a government, and sometimes to relinquish their rights and sacrifice them for the protection of the state and the civil government. This is in fact the Enlightenment idea of the state and the government, as well as the said social contract, and all together represents the origin of the authority in the civil state and the obligation of the citizens, that is, the entities that make up that state.
