6—On majority rule, the general will, and the relation of the individual to government
Rousseau believed that power should derive from the people. Lord Radcliffe examines some of Rousseau's arguments and their implications, and he questions whether they are compatible with the Benthamite view that the State should interfere as little as possible with the individual. Lord Radcliffe goes on to consider these and other theories in relation to the British Constitution.
