1. Philosophies of enlightenment

2. Evolution

Explanation:

The philosophy of enlightenment challenge the government by declaring that man was born free but are still in chains. Immanual Kant argued that we see reality but we do not speak of reality. Therefore reality is subject to perceptions.

Evolution was a philosophy of the change of biological populations over years and the most famous one from Darwin is the theory of natural selection where more offspring is produced than what can survive.
