The fundamental question that Rousseau tries to address in <em>The Social Contract</em> is that of reconciling the freedom of the individual with the authority of the state. On first examination, these two appear to be opposites, and Rousseau tries to understand how both ideas can be accepted and put into practice.

His solution is that of a social contract. Under a social contract, people willingly decide to give up some of their freedom in exchange for protection from the government. However, this means that if the government fails in protecting the rights and liberties of citizens, these are justified in changing it or removing it. This idea is at the core of modern democratic systems.

The basic inquiry that Rousseau looks to address in The Social Contract is on how is a strategy for partner to be discovered which will guard and secure utilizing the energy of all the individual and property of every part and still empower every individual from the gathering to obey just himself and to stay as free as earlier?" This inquiry may be revamped as taken after; how is an arrangement of reliance on each other to be set up while every individual part protects his own particular flexibility? This is a well-established inquiry in which we attempt and figure out how to build up authentic political specialist where a state can exist that keeps up, as opposed to compels, opportunity.

How did the inventions of the industrial revolution change the economies of the North and the South?
maw [93]

It is probably more nearly correct to state that the Northern states offered more fertile soil for industrialization to grow and prosper than the South.  The comments above about slavery are misstated. The Southern economy was indeed agrarian and dependent upon slave labor; however the reason for this is was that the economy in that portion of the country consisted of large scale plantations of staple crops, primarily cotton.  It is manifestly incorrect to state...
