On social contract
On Social Contract (French: Du Contrat Social) is a political work published by the French thinker Jean-Jean-jean-jacques rousseau in 1762.
The Theory of Social Contract is divided into four volumes: the first volume discusses social structure and social contract, the second volume expounds sovereignty and its rights, the third volume expounds government and its operation form, and the fourth volume discusses several social organizations.
The idea that sovereignty belongs to the people in social contract is the cornerstone of modern democratic system, which has deeply influenced the revolutionary movement in Europe and the independence war of British North American colonies.
