john Locke's concept of the social contract was based on the idea that individuals in a society agree to give up some of their freedoms in exchange for protection of their natural rights by the government. This contract involved the government ruling based on the consent of the governed, and if the government failed to uphold its end of the contract, the people had the right to rebel and form a new government.
