The Portuguese set many forts and factories when they explored Africa. They also were able to reach India through the Cape of Good Hope. They also created several naval outposts that linked Lisbon to Nagasaki to several other coast in the world. They also grew wealthy due to business work. The Dutch on the hand, wanted to take part in the spice trade while many Dutch farmers traveled to the interior. They were taxed too much but did not get any protection from African raids and set up their own governments in Swellendam and Graaf-Reinet.

What does Rousseau mean by the "general will”?

tester [92]

Rousseau meant by the general will that there is an inner aim in all human beings to a form existence which is common to all of them.

Explanation:

Rousseau was a primitive theorist in the sense that he believed that humans could have a peaceful coexistence if they went back to their old primate lifestyles and left the root of all evils behind with the society.

In this age of innocence, he believed there can not be any evil in any person who lives in this primate world.

This was part of his concept of the general will that all the people in the world possess this will to go back to that primitive life and lead a life of innocence.
