What societal change did rousseau support?

a: gender equality

b: the end of government

c: equality under the law

d: the social contract as a moral guide

Rousseau supported the idea of the social contract, and this means answer D is the right answer.  

Explanation:

Jean-Jacques Rousseau died in 1778, during the eighteenth century.  During this period, gender equality was not the main concern of society at the time, making answer A incorrect.   Urgent political issues such as the separation of powers and Monarchy absolutism were the main topics of the era.

He, however,  promoted the idea of the social contract (answer D).  Based on this idea, all citizens give up some of their rights to the Government, so the Government can maintain social order.  This is because all citizens will search for their own benefit.  In order to increase the benefit of all citizens, those must agree that is moral to concede authority to the Government, as the general benefactor of all citizens.

Since the precept of giving this power to the Government may provide a common moral ground to the acceptance of one authority over all citizens, this is not related to equality under the law (all beings treated equal while slavery was still present in society).  Therefore, answer C is not the most appropriate for this question.

Rousseau also mentions that citizens rely on the Government, which is contrary to the statement made on answer B (end of government).

C

Explanation:

Because Rousseau main belief was that everyone was equal under the law
