Exploring the philosophical foundations of social inequality, Rousseau delves into the origins of human society and the impact of civilization on natural human equality. He argues that the development of property and social structures has led to moral and political disparities among individuals. Through a critical analysis of human nature and societal evolution, the work challenges readers to reflect on the implications of inequality and the potential for a more equitable society. Rousseau's discourse remains a significant contribution to political philosophy and social theory.
