Abstract
OCIAL CONTRACT theories explain how political obligation is incurred in terms of a social contract made by men in a prepolitical state of nature. There is some question as to whether their conceptions of the character of man in the state of nature are compatible with their assumption that he is capable of making the social contract. Some students of social contract theory suggest that the state of nature cannot generate political society, that natural man would be incapable of making the social contract unless he was already social.
