Social contract theory deals with the question of society and the value of being a member of society. According to Thomas Hobbes's book Leviathan, life in a state of nature (with no government, laws, or other rules) would be "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short."
In order to protect against such an existence, mankind joins into an assumed or implied agreement known as "the social contract". In so doing, each individual relinquishes their right to act according to the basic laws of nature and instead be constrained by laws of a governing body.
The benefit of entering into such an arrangement is the overall protection that society provides. Within a society, there are typically rules constraining a person's ability to steal, murder, assault, or otherwise harm other individuals within the society. The common defense of society's members, as well as secondary functions such as commerce and infrastructure, are the basic advantages of living within a society.
Animal welfare benefits both animals and society by promoting humane treatment of animals, improving animal health and well-being, reducing animal suffering, and fostering a more compassionate and ethical society. This can lead to healthier ecosystems, safer food sources, and a more harmonious relationship between humans and animals.
The common good refers to the well-being of all members of society. It benefits society as a whole by promoting fairness, justice, and the overall welfare of individuals. It helps create a sense of community, fosters cooperation, and ensures that everyone has access to basic needs and opportunities for a better life.
People submit to the social contract for protection and security, as it establishes rules and a framework for society to function smoothly. By giving up certain freedoms in exchange for the benefits of living in a regulated society, individuals can ensure their own safety and well-being.
