Rousseau


Answer: (B) Rousseau advocated government based on social contract

Many French philosophers were educated and trusted in a society founded on equitable rules and opportunities for all, including John Locke and Jean Jacques Rousseau. John Locke published a book, ‘Two Government Treatises’, in which he tried to refute the monarch’s doctrine of the supernatural and the absolute right. Rousseau took this idea even further suggested a system of government between the citizens and their members focuses on the social contract.
