In his Discourse on the Origin of Inequality, Rousseau uses the traits of “perfectibility” and “free will” to help describe different aspects of human nature. What does Rousseau mean by perfectibility? How does Rousseau define free will? Does Rousseau think that perfectibility 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.
