I want to know the answer to the following question:
Which of Hobbes' ideas led to the distinction between civil society and the state?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Hobbes also developed some of the fundamentals of European liberal thought: the right of the individual; the natural equality of all men; the artificial character of the political order (which led to the later distinction between civil society and the state); the view that all legitimate political power must be "representative" and based on the consent of the people; and a liberal interpretation of law which leaves people free to do whatever the law does not explicitly forbid.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
