This 12 page
report discusses Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) and his
writing “The Social Contract” (1762). Rousseau was an undeniably
keen thinker and was equipped with the weapons of the
philosophical century and with an inspiring eloquence. To that
eloquence he added a pronounced egotism, self-seeking, and an
arrogance that led to bitter antagonism against his revolutionary
views and sensitive personality. The central concept in
Rousseau’s thought is “liberty,” and, as a result, most of his
works deal with the mechanisms through which humans are forced to
give up their liberty. Most modern political and social
scientists believe that it was in the publication of The Social
Contract that Rousseau reached the pinnacle of his political and
philosophical development. Pretensions of rugged individualism
and distrust of all civil authority of his early writings gave
way to the construction of a positive political society.
Bibliography lists 7 sources.
