Synopsis

Can individual freedom and social stability be reconciled? What I the function of government? What are the benefits and liabilities of civilation? What is the original nature of man, and how can he most fully realize his potential. These were the questions that Jean-Jacques Rousseau investigated in works that helped set the stage for the French Revolution and have since stood as eloquent expressions of revolutionary views, not only in politics but also in such areas as personal life styles and educational practices.
