View full profile →

Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778) was a Genevan philosopher, writer, and composer whose political philosophy profoundly influenced the Enlightenment, the French Revolution, and the development of modern political, educational, and sociological thought. He is best known for his works 'The Social Contract' and 'Emile, or On Education,' which argue for popular sovereignty, the innate goodness of humanity corrupted by society, and the importance of natural development.
