«Discours sur l'origine et les fondements de l'inégalité parmi les hommes» is Jean-Jacques Rousseau's essay in paperback (283 pages).
In this philosophical discourse, Rousseau investigates the roots of inequality among human beings and contrasts the state of nature with life in society. He argues that private property and the institutions created to protect it corrupt original freedom and consolidate relations of domination, in a text that anticipates the concerns of «El contrato social».
Edition from the Folio Essais collection, with text established, presented and annotated by Jean Starobinski.
