Thomas Hobbes's Leviathan is a philosophical treatise on the nature of government and society. Hobbes argues that human nature is fundamentally self-interested and that the only way to escape the "state of nature," which is a war of all against all, is to submit to a sovereign power. He then explores various aspects of government, including the forms of government, the rights of the sovereign, the nature of law, and the role of religion. He further examines the causes of crime and the nature of spiritual darkness, suggesting that misguided interpretations of scripture and false principles lead to these ills. Ultimately, Hobbes seeks to establish a framework for understanding political and social order based on rational principles and a clear understanding of human motivation.
