The Social Contract is Jean-Jacque Rousseau's most famous work and a key document in political theory. Rousseau argued that the governments of his time repressed the freedom of its citizens and that a legitimate government is one that is created through a social contract with the citizens. This document greatly influenced the framers of the U.S. Constitution.
