Title Abandoned to ourselves : being an essay on the emergence and implications of sociology in the writings of Mr. Jean-Jacques Rousseau, with special attention to his claims about the moral significance of dependence in the composition and self-transformation of the social bond, & aimed to uncover the tensions between those two perspectives- creationism & social evolution- that remains embedded in our common sense & which still impedes the human science of politics-- / Peter Alexander Meyers
