«Contrato social» is the political philosophy essay by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, published by Biblioteca Nueva in paperback (192 pages, in Spanish).
In this central work of modern political thought, Rousseau argues that legitimate social order can only be founded on a pact expressing the general will. He analyses sovereignty as a collective exercise of the people and the conditions for individual and community not to come into contradiction.
Edition by Sergio Sevilla in the Clásicos del Pensamiento collection. Work originally published in 1762 as Du contrat social, ou Principes du droit politique.
For readers of political philosophy and humanities students who want to approach a classic of modern thought.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau was a Genevan philosopher, philosophe, writer, and composer. His political philosophy influenced the progress of the Age of Enlightenment throughout Europe, as well as aspects of the French Revolution and the development of modern political, economic, and educational thought.
