In Farewell to Rousseau, Claudine Sutton critiques the liberalism and democracy of Jean-Jacques Rousseau. She argues that the ideas of liberty and equality promoted by Rousseau are unrealistic and ultimately destructive. She contends that Rousseau's beliefs in the natural goodness of humans lead to the erosion of traditional social institutions, and ultimately, the destruction of democracy.; 8vo; 220 pages.
