John Locke, a philosopher, argued that a government loses its right to rule when it violates the social contract by failing to protect natural rights, such as life, liberty, and property. If a government becomes tyrannical or fails to serve the interests of its citizens, Locke believed that people have the right to resist and, if necessary, overthrow that government.
