During the 18th century, it was Jean-Jacques Rousseau, a philosopher, who famously said the words, "Man is born free but is everywhere in chains." Rousseau believed that society and its institutions, such as government and social norms, restricted individual freedom and corrupted human nature. He argued that people were naturally good and equal, but were oppressed by the structures of society. Rousseau`s ideas had a significant influence on political and social thought during that time, particularly in the development of the concept of individual rights and the relationship between the individual and society. Option 3, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, is therefore the correct answer.
