"The Social Contract" by Jean-Jacques Rousseau is a foundational work of political philosophy that explores the idea of the social contract, the compact that underlies the formation of legitimate political authority and the structure of society. Rousseau argues that in the state of nature, individuals are free and equal, but as they come together in society, they must agree to a social contract in which they surrender some of their natural rights in exchange for protection and cooperation. He contemplates the nature of a just and legitimate government, advocating for a general will that represents the common interests of the people. Rousseau's work had a profound influence on political thought and the development of modern political theory, raising questions about the nature of authority, individual liberty, and the role of government in a just society.
