Discorso sull'origine e i fondamenti della diseguaglianza tra gli uomini
Book • 1755
In this work, Rousseau argues that inequality does not originate in the state of nature but rather emerges with the formation of society.
He distinguishes between natural inequality, which is based on physical and health differences, and moral or political inequality, which is established by human conventions.
Rousseau critiques the institution of private property and the subsequent development of laws and governments, which he believes have led to the exploitation of the poor by the rich.
He advocates for the creation of a just civil society that corrects the moral and material damages caused by inequality, a theme further developed in his 'Contratto sociale'.
