Maison Rousseau et Littérature International and Interdisciplinary Competition

The Maison Rousseau et Littérature (MRL) is seeking applications for its international and interdisciplinary competition under the project entitled “A social contract for the 21st century”.

The project “A social contract for the 21st century” was initiated by the MRL and the Domaine de Villette Foundation and is supported by the latter.

This international, interdisciplinary competition aims to promote projects that examine the Social Contract in light of contemporary crises and draft a design for tomorrow. By investigating avenues for a new social order serving the general interest, this competition should facilitate a collective rethinking of ecology, public health, participatory democracy, social justice, and any other key global factors, creating substantial impetus for a new model of society.

Based on a theme crucial to Rousseau – contract, obligation, common good, public interest, citizenship, amour des lois, governmentality, property, security, corruption, secularism – entries to this competition, individual or collective, may come in any form, using any medium: theoretical text, work of art, film, practical project, etc.
