They believed in the idea of social vontract in which government is a "necessary evil" to protect individuals from harm of others.

By devicing a system in which lwas, judges and police protect individual liberty.

The Declaration was also influenced by classical Republicanism  based on ancient Greek and Rome(which prevented governmet power from getting out of control by vote) and christianity.
