Its aim is to explain why, for Rousseau, thinking about politics – whether as democratic sovereignty, representative government, institutionalised power, imaginative vision or a moment of decision – lay at the heart of what he called his “grand, sad system.” This book tracks the gradual emergence of the various components of that system and describes the connections between them. The result is a new and fresh interpretation of one of Europe’s most famous political thinkers, showing why Rousseau can be seen as one of the first theorists of the modern concept of civil society and a key source of the problematic modern idea of a federal system.History of European Political and Constitutional Thought;2.Political scienceHistory18th centuryGeneral willSocial contractCivil societyFederal governmentPolitical scienceHistoryGeneral will.Social contract.Civil society.Federal government.320.01Sonenscher Michael249489MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910809067903321Jean-Jacques Rousseau3909247UNINA02025oas 2200697 a 450 991014375190332120250808213020.0(DE-599)ZDB2521081-6(OCoLC)300592946(CONSER) 2009235702(CKB)991042725236172(EXLCZ)9999104272523617220090130b19691970 uy aengurunu---uuauatxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierChange in higher educationNew York, NY Science and University Affairs for Educational Change1969-19701 online resource"Conceived under the auspices of the Union for Research and Experimentation in Higher Education and funded by a grant from the Esso Educational Foundation."Final issued consulted: Vol. 2, no. 3 (May/June 1970) (JSTOR, viewed October 7, 2009).0363-6291 ChangeEducation, HigherPeriodicalsEnseignement supérieurPériodiquesSzkolnictwo wyzszedbnEducation, Higherfast(OCoLC)fst00903005Czasopismo pedagogiczne.dbnPeriodicals.fastPeriodicals.lcgftEducation, HigherEnseignement supérieurSzkolnictwo wyzsze.Education, Higher.378.1/005Educational Change, inc.OCLCEOCLCEOCLCQEYMHULGWDNBOCLCQOCLCFOCLCOOCLCQDEBBGUABVT2CUSSFBOCLCQU3WOCLCQOCLCLJOURNAL9910143751903321Change in higher education2258395UNINA
