For many years Rousseau was indeed a lonely wanderer in the outskirts of the history of philosophy 에볼루션 카지노 웹사이트“ never really out, and never really in. Du contrat social has always been a standard work of political philosophy and contractualist theory, but the rest of his oeuvre, even his main claim to fame, Émile ou de l에볼루션 카지노 웹사이트™Ã©ducation, has led a somewhat obscure existence in the scholarly world of academic philosophy. His ideas have inspired thinkers, writers, and artists, but they still remain elusive.

Recent years에볼루션 카지노 웹사이트™ growing focus on education, the allegedly universal remedy for every ill of man and society, has highlighted the position of Rousseau in philosophy of education, political and social theory, history and critique of civilization etc. What is his contribution, his lesson to us? His thinking refuses a fixed place within the system of academic disciplines, it resists non-contradictory interpretations. Maybe we are wise to leave him out of the textbook and go looking for him instead. Join us!
