answer of Q1 : no, it can"t be, because the popular sovereignty is the opposite status of the divine king, where the people are put before the ruler not vice verse

answer of Q2 : in John Locke version of social contract, people must"ve given up half of
their liberty and property to the ruler, in order to secure the other half

answer of Q3: actually the both of theories are right regarding the human nature, but we can't separate them out . or looking to one and dismiss the other, because the society has the good, the bad and the ugly in the same boat .

people don't "join the society"
people are simply born
being born is not an "agreement" of any sort to consent to anything

Awesome, this is definitely going to help me with my research paper. Thank you

A person by them self obviously does not have the right to extort money from another human being. Can you delegate a right you yourself do not have to someone else? What about 20 people, can they delegate a right they do not already have? No many how many people, the principle is the same. If not, how did Congress get those rights?

[yovitamelia]

I thought separation of powers was from Montesquieu

#3 is neither. Nurture and Nature play a part in determining the psychology of an individual and their willingness to abide by the laws of the state that they live within. A serial killer vs. an altruistic priest. They were both born a blank slate so neither one started off good or evil. Life however had an effect on what they were taught, the life experiences that they went through, and what rules they were raised with. These all have an effect on developing a person's psychology and the justifications that the individual uses to explain why they chose to do something.

A state of nature should therefore encompass both. That we wish all humans were good, thus they should be treated as such until their behavior requires a response. We therefore must have sensible rules that all are governed by in order to respond to those who choose not to be good.

Hobbes never described people as inherently evil. Locke never described them as inherently good.

The Disabled Person’s Social Contract
This template is a guide for disabled and non-disabled people alike to better coexist.[i]  This contract should be signed and notarized.
1.      Give equal time (and number of words) to both speakers and do not interrupt or talk over the disabled person.
2.      Speak at relatively the same pace, tone, and volume as the disabled person (not with loud shouting or an infantilizing lisp-lullaby)
3.      Be open to having everything in your interaction with the disabled person being video and or audio recorded in order to protect the disabled person
4.      Focusing the conversation upon facts and matters of substance rather than personal opinions and subjective value judgments about disability.

[i] Due to the historical genocide and terrorism of society against the disabled it has become necessary to draft a contract to negotiate fair-minded and ethical rules for non-disabled people to interact with the disabled.
