The political philosophy of the 18th century philosopher
Jean-Jacques Rousseau has long been associated with the dramatic
events of the French Revolution. In this book, an international
team of scholars has been brought together to examine the
connection between Rousseau's thought and the revolutionary
traditions of modern Europe. The book explores Rousseau's own
conceptions of violence and revolution in contrast to those of
other thinkers such as Hegel and Fanon and in connection with his
ideas on democracy. Historical analyses also consider Rousseau's
thinking in light of the French Revolution in particular and the
European revolutions that have followed it. Across the eleven
chapters the book also touches on such issues as citizenship,
activism, terrorism and the State. In doing so, the book reveals
Rousseau to be an important source of insight into contemporary
political problems.
