In his Discourse on the Origin of Inequality, Rousseau uses the traits of ‘perfectability’ and
‘free will’ to help describe different aspects of human nature. What does Rousseau mean by
perfectability? How does Rousseau define free will? Does Rousseau think that
perfectability and free will are positive attributes for us to have, or does he think they are
negative attributes (or a little bit of both)? Explain fully. Finally, explain whether you agree
with Rousseau's position or not.
