13. Which concept are they describing?
A. State of nature
B. Social contract
C. Majority rule
D. general will

It is probably D. General will.

Explanation:

The government was made to be ruled by the people, not the government ruling the people. This is because the governments "are instituted among men deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." So the government gets its powers from voters who consent to the government having this power. The general will is involved and the people are technically willing to give the government its power.
