루소의 시민사회와 인권실현

초록

This study aims to conceptualize the meanings of human rights(droit naturel et civil) and civil society(société civil) in Rousseau`s works, and shows how human rights are outwardly performed by the individuals in civil society. In order to do so, firstly, the conceptualization of human rights(natural rights and civil rights) will be done. Secondly, the concept of civil society will be synthesized by defining the meanings of citizen and society. In addition, the relationship between these concepts and Republic(Cité) in Rousseau`s thoughts will be reasoned. This study will naturally include the connections of social contract to all of these concepts, and expose the meaning of participation to Republic in the dimension of the individual, which specifically means that acting for and discussing about the political things, and reconciling private interests with common interest.
