The book explores the concept of a social contract, arguing against the legitimacy of a state that oppresses its citizens. It proposes that true freedom arises when individuals collectively agree to surrender an equal number of rights and responsibilities, ensuring fairness and equality among all members of society. This philosophical examination challenges traditional notions of authority and governance, advocating for a system where freedom is preserved through mutual consent and shared obligations.
