Final answer:

Hobbes and Locke disagreed on human nature; Hobbes saw it as self-interested and chaotic, while Locke viewed it as rational and rights-driven.


Explanation:

Thomas Hobbes and John Locke held contrasting views on human nature.

Hobbes believed humans were inherently self-interested and needed a strong central authority to prevent chaos. He depicted life in the state of nature as harsh and violent, where individuals would compete for survival.

On the other hand, Locke saw humans as inherently rational and believed in natural rights like life, liberty, and property. He proposed a social contract to protect these rights and ensure societal order.
