CONCEPT OF FAMILY IN ROUSSEAU

This study refers to Rousseau's thoughts and writings, which suggest that the concept of the family, often underlined in social structures, is maintained by a contract of society. Thus, it is aimed to examine the social order that is organized and controlled under the family in social and political platforms. The study was conducted through a content analysis of the Rousseau texts. Certainly, these texts are also mentioned in other discussions. As a result of the content analysis made, it is appropriate to mention two basic points. One of these is the emphasis on sociality Rousseau has done to the family, and in this context the family is a contract-based structure. The other is that the family reads the text of what is actually serving the family, and it is mentioned that the role of the family and the responsibility of the family as well as the relations of the family with the state are mentioned. The study deals with the concept of family in the context of Rousseau texts in the context of limited freedoms, inequality and ownershi
