Resumo
The purpose of this article is to analyze the citizenship
proposed by Rousseau in light of certain delimitations placed by
the philosopher to the exercise of this right, which configure a kind
of political participation that would be appropriate to the regime
described in the Social Contract. So, I intend to show that popular
sovereignty has, for the Genevan writer, a key role in defending the
legislation, and that it is up to the Lawgiver and to the magistrates
guide citizens in approving the good laws necessary for the State. This
thesis is consistent with Rousseau’s republicanism, since it shows
that these citizens, members of the social compact, are responsible for
protecting and preserving their own freedom throughout the existence
of the political body.
