Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book explores Jean-Jacques Rousseau's social contract theory, emphasizing its significance for democratic legitimacy in Africa. It argues that sovereignty, as defined by Rousseau, belongs to the people and is both indivisible and inalienable. The work discusses how this foundational idea positions the populace as the ultimate authority in governance, capable of appointing and dismissing leaders based on adherence to the social contract. By examining the contemporary relevance of Rousseau's ideas, the book addresses the ongoing legitimacy crisis in African governance.
