"The Contrat social remains Rousseau's greatest work. With no particular learning, no gift for logic, and a total lack of practical experience, he yet contrived to write a work of compelling eloquence. [...] In the Age of Reason he advocated the greater force of intuition: against artificial refinement, he urged a return to the natural state. [...] His fundamental thesis that government depends absolutely on the mandate of the people, and his genuine creative insight into a number of political and economic problems, give his work an indisputable cogency. It had the most profound influence on the political thinking of the generation following its publication. It was, after all, the first great Emotional plea for the equality of all men in the state" (PMM 207).
