What is a Contract?

·13 min·1 clip

The host argues that just three laws—don't hurt people, don't take their stuff, and do what you promise—are all society needs.

This educational episode explores contract law, starting with basic principles like written agreements and arbitration, then diving into social contract theory by comparing philosophers Hobbes, Rousseau, and Locke. It connects these ideas to real-life applications, such as classroom contracts and the challenges of opting out of societal rules.
