Answer 1

According to Rousseau's point of view ''dictatorship is better than democracy''

Step-by-step explanation:

Rousseau's point of view was that ''Monarchy is tremendously efficient, since all power rests in the hands of one man.'' He also said that dictatorship is better than democracy because one man takes all decisions of the state as compared to democracy where a group of representatives takes all decision. He justify his point of view that monarchy or dictatorship is efficient due to all powers in the hands of one person.
