Man used to live in simplicity and freedom in the state of nature as is explained by Rousseau. He did not have the feeling of selfishness. His life was that of a ‘Noble Savage’. He was happy and content. But, this heavenly state of nature could not last long. The will to create property and family arose in man. Natural equality and freedom of‘ Noble Savage’ came to an end along with the advent of personal property. It became impossible to live together. Jealousy and conflicts arose and all the comforts and peace of state of nature came to an end. As a result, man felt the need to organize themselves into a state.
