Discourse on the Origin and Basis of Inequality Among Men by the philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau was originally written for an essay competition run by the Dijon Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1754.

Rousseau's text is divided into four main parts: a dedication, preface, an extended inquiry into the nature of the individual, and another inquiry into the evolution of the human species within society.

Opera controversa e fonte inesauribile di aspri dibattiti sin dalla sua prima comparsa, "Il contratto sociale" impose Rousseau come uno tra i principali pensatori dell'Illuminismo francese. Trattato filosofico-politico, senz'altro uno dei maggiori mai scritti, in esso l'autore affronta il problema fondamentale del rapporto tra individuo e società.
