Dans le Discours sur l'economie politique, Rousseau forme deux elements essentiels de sa pensee politique: la notion de la volonte generale et la distinction entre souverainete et gouvernement. Pourtant, la place centrale qui revient a cette oeuvre ne lui a pas ete reconnue. D'abord publiee (en 1755) comme article de l'Encyclopedie, elle a longtemps ete consideree comme marquee par l'influence de Diderot. Son objet, l'economie, semblait etranger aux preoccupations essentielles de Rousseau. Cette nouvelle edition, appuyee sur le brouillon manuscrit, eclaire la genese du texte. Le commentaire propose cherche a degager l'unite et la specificite de l'oeuvre: il analyse le processus d'invention de la volonte generale et l'emergence des problemes decisifs lies a cette notion; il restitue son sens a l'economie politique dans la pensee de Rousseau; il situe son intervention, centrale parce que singuliere, dans les debats de son temps. C'est sans doute ce qui fait aussi son interet present: parce que l'administration des choses, a ses yeux, doit dependre de celle des hommes, Rousseau lie les questions du patriotisme, de l'education publique a celles de la propriete et de l'impot. Il affirme clairement que l'economie doit etre pensee sous la politique parce que l'egalite est la condition de la liberte.
