The purpose of the social contract is the protection of those who make it. The purpose is to want the means that want it, and these ends are not separate from certain dangers and losses. Anyone who wants to protect his own life by harming others has to sacrifice his own life for them if necessary. When the law says to him that you must be put in danger The citizen is not in a position to calculate the danger, and when the ruler says to himself that you must die for the country, the citizen must die, because until then it was possible to live in safety under these conditions, and his life is no longer just a gift of nature, but a gift given by the state under certain conditions. It is interesting to note that the larger a state (where size refers to population and territory), the more it oppresses the people living in it, and the number of people governing the state should decrease in line with the size of the state. From this point of view, it concludes that small states with a small population are governed by democracy, medium-sized ones by aristocracy, and those with large lands by a monarchy. However, it is interesting that he is one of the fathers of the French Revolution, that is, he worked on the forms of government that would replace the monarchies (democracy, aristocracy, etc.) and defended the elective aristocracy as the best form of government in the same book.
