In its earliest state people lived simply and self-sufficiently guided by natural goodness and freedom. But with the rise of private property came competition dependency and artificial hierarchies. Genuine liberty was replaced with social divisions and human nature became corrupted by greed and pride. Through a sweeping philosophical examination Rousseau questions whether civilization has truly improved the human condition or merely intensified injustice urging readers to reflect on the cost of so-called progress.</span></p><p></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>First published in 1755 Jean-Jacques Rousseau's </span><strong style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Discourse on the Origin of Inequality</strong><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)> delivered a radical critique of Enlightenment ideals.
