Rousseau explores how this transformation led to the corruption of natural human goodness replacing genuine freedom with dependence and social divisions. Through a philosophical examination of history he questions whether civilization has truly improved the human condition or merely deepened injustice. With a compelling mix of speculation and critique he challenges readers to reconsider the foundations of modern society and the cost of its so-called progress.</span></p><p></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>A bold critique of civilization Rousseau's </span><em style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Discourse on the Origin of Inequality</em><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)> challenged Enlightenment ideals by arguing that progress had deepened social divisions rather than alleviating them. His radical ideas on property power and freedom influenced the French Revolution and shaped modern political thought. By questioning whether inequality is natural or socially constructed he laid the foundation for debates on justice and human rights. Even today his work sparks discussion on the costs of progress and the roots of social injustice.</span></p>
