This book is intended as an equivalent to or substitute for that 鈥渕ore reflective reading鈥 which Rousseau considered essential to an understanding of his ideas. It is designed to complement perusal of the texts themselves, and the arrangement is such that chapters on each of Rousseau’s major writings can be consulted separately or the commentary may be read through in sequence. The author’s purpose is not to present a 鈥渒ey鈥 to Rousseau’s political philosophy, but rather to explore the works themselves in an effort to reveal Rousseau’s 鈥渟ystem,鈥 from which the reader may then draw his own conclusions.

Originally published in 1976.
