Περιγραφή για Of The Social Contract and Other Political Writings Jean-Jacques Rousseau Penguin Classics

\'Man was born free, and everywhere he is in chains.\' These are the famous opening words of a treatise that has stirred vigorous debate ever since its first publication in 1762. Rejecting the view that anyone has a natural right to wield authority over others, Rousseau argues instead for a pact, or \'social contract\', that should exist between all the citizens of a state and that should be the source of sovereign power. From this fundamental premise, he goes on to consider issues of liberty and law, freedom and justice, arriving at a view of society that has seemed to some a blueprint for totalitarianism, to others a declaration of democratic principles.Translated by Quintin HoareWith a new introduction by Christopher Bertram Σελίδες: 400, Διαστάσεις: 13x13cm
