'Discours sur l’origine et les fondements de l’inégalité parmi les hommes' Summary
Rousseau's Discourse on the Origin and Foundations of Inequality among Men is a seminal work of political philosophy that explores the origins and nature of social inequality. Rousseau argues that inequality is not natural, but rather a product of social institutions and conventions. He traces the development of inequality from the state of nature, where all men are equal, to the rise of private property and the division of labor, which lead to the emergence of social hierarchy and oppression.Book Details
