Answer: A) greater rights for common people.

Rousseau argued for a democratic government to rule developed countries. He claimed that the government was in place only through an implicit social contract between the people and the government. This contract ensured that the needs of the people for safety and resources were fulfilled in exchange for the loss of some of their liberties.

However, he argued that in most systems, this contract was broken, because the government was not fulfilling its side of the bargain. According to Rousseau, the power and sovereignty of the country laid with the common people. Therefore, the fulfillment of their common needs and desires (the common will) was the main goal of the state.
