The Social Contract & Discourses

by Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Can humanity exist with fairness at its core? Jean-Jacques Rousseau's seminal work, "The Social Contract & Discourses", grapples with this question. This thought-provoking treatise explores the essence of society, arguing that true political authority rests not with the government but with the people. Rousseau's ground-breaking theories on inequality, the state of nature, and the collective will of the populace have shaped centuries of political thought. Uncover the roots of his radical ideas and how they continue to resonate in our world today. This book is not just a study; it's a journey into the heart of human society. Read it, and question everything you thought you knew about social order.
