Rousseau argumenta que la soberanía debe residir en el pueblo y que los individuos deben someterse a la voluntad colectiva para preservar la libertad y la igualdad. La obra discute los conceptos de democracia directa, la importancia de la participación ciudadana y la necesidad de un gobierno legítimo basado en el consentimiento de la población.
