Page "State of nature" Paragraph 13

Hobbes's view was challenged in the eighteenth century by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who claimed that Hobbes was taking socialized people and simply imagining them living outside of the society in which they were raised.

He affirmed instead that people were neither good nor bad.

In Rousseau's state of nature, people did not know each other enough, and they did have normal values.

The modern society is blamed for blemishing the pure people.
