More about the book
Exploring the concepts of freedom, responsibility, and social order, this study positions these issues as central to modernity. It examines the development of civil society as both a setting and a safeguard for social self-sufficiency, tracing its roots to thinkers like Locke, Hobbes, Rousseau, and the Scottish Enlightenment philosophers. By analyzing how these foundational ideas influenced 19th-century sociological and philosophical discussions, the book offers a deep insight into the evolution of civil society and its implications for contemporary thought.
