This work offers an in-depth analysis of the philosophical, educational and political thought of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, focusing especially on his work The Social Contract. It begins with a presentation of the author's objectives and a biographical contextualization, followed by an exposition of his philosophical system and his conception of the human being, as developed in the Discourse on Inequality. The work explores the practical applications of his thought in the educational (Emile or Education) and political (The Social Contract) fields, highlighting his proposal for a social pact as a response to the corruption of society.
An extensive section delves into the detailed analysis of The Social Contract, examining its theoretical foundations, the nature of the pact, the problem of property, and the role of law and government. In addition, the presence of Greco-Roman classics in the work is studied, identifying multiple types of references —philosophical, mythological, literary, legislative and historical— and their argumentative function within the text.
Finally, the work concludes with a reflection on the validity of Rousseau's thought and its relationship with the ancient world, providing a critical and comparative vision between its political current affairs and classical civilizations
