He insisted on the sovereignty of the people, and made some provocative statements that are still highly controversial.

Poland  do we find what this crucial transformation entails and what it presupposes. But probably the greatest lesson to be learned from . . . Poland concerns Rousseau's understanding of the proper relationship between theory and practice. . . .

If inequality is intolerable - and Rousseau shows with unparalledled eloquence how it robs us not only of our material but also of our psychological independence - then how can we recover the peaceful self-sufficiency of life in the state of nature? We cannot return to a simpler time, but measuring the costs of progress may help us to imagine alternatives to the corruption and oppressive conformity of modern society.  Rousseau''s sweeping account of humanity''s social and political development epitomizes the innovative boldness of the Englightment, and it is one of the most provocative and influential works of the eighteenth century.

Empleando como trama la lucha que sostuvo contra el destino, al aceptar las acusaciones vertidas contra su ser por considerarlas otras tantas virtudes que habían de conducirle a la gloria y volverse contra sus acusadores. Sus Confesiones constituyen un vívido retrato de una sociedad que no solo abrumó al niño inocente de la primera parte, sino que siguió haciendo lo propio con el hombre maduro de la segunda. Un hombre que fue perseguido de forma infatigable por todos, incluidos sus propios amigos de juventud, como Diderot, Grimm o Voltaire, que no ahorraron encarnizamientos contra su persona.","brand":"Book Curl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49540862706007,"sku":"9788413371672","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}]},{"product_id":"el-contrato-social-9788415089407","title":"El contrato social","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Plutón Ediciones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49540985880919,"sku":"9788415089407","price":11.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}]},{"product_id":"el-contrato-social-9788418933233","title":"El Contrato Social","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Editorial Alma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49541908431191,"sku":"9788418933233","price":16.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}]},{"product_id":"el-contrato-social-the-social-contract-9788430601134","title":"El contrato social  The Social Contract","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIdeas que han cambiado el mundo.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e A lo largo de la historia, algunos libros han cambiado el mundo.
