«Discours sur l'origine et les fondements de l'inégalité parmi les hommes ; Discours sur les sciences et les arts» is the essay by Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
The volume brings together two discourses by the philosopher: in the first, Rousseau questions the effect of the sciences and arts on customs; in the second, he investigates the origin and foundations of inequality among men. He criticizes the social and political conventions of his time and argues that civilized order separates the human being from his natural condition, generating inequality.
