Explanation:

Hobbes' Views on War

Hobbes identified three main reasons for war: for Gain, for Safety, and for Reputation, where people use violence to gain mastery over others, defend themselves, or protect their reputation. Wars are fought over resources, security, and social standing.

He believed that in the absence of a common power to keep order, individuals live in a state of constant war where the will to fight is present, leading to conflict and insecurity.

Ultimately, Hobbes advocated for a social contract where people relinquish some freedoms to a sovereign authority in exchange for peace and stability.
