Jean-Jacques Rousseau 
The Social Contract [EPUB ebook] 

Jean-Jacques Rousseau writes, ‘Man is born free; and everywhere he is in chains.’ This statement exemplifies the main idea behind ‘The Social Contract’, in other words that man is essentially free if it weren’t for the oppression of political organizations such as government. Rousseau goes on to lay forth the principles that he deems most important for achieving political right amongst people.
