Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679) was a seminal English philosopher best known for his work in political philosophy. His most famous book, Leviathan, published in 1651, laid the foundation for Western political thought by introducing the concept of the social contract and the necessity of a strong central authority to avoid the chaos of the state of nature. Hobbes’ ideas on the nature of human beings, the structure of society, and the role of government have had a profound influence on subsequent political theory and philosophy. His contributions continue to be studied and debated, making him a pivotal figure in the history of political thought.
