Thomas Hobbes was an English philosopher best known for his work Leviathan, in which he explored the concept of the social contract and the need for a strong central authority to prevent a state of nature, which he described as "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short." Hobbes argued that individuals willingly give up some freedoms in exchange for protection and security provided by the government.
