Question

10. Which political philosopher believed that government, school, art

and newspapers naturally corrupts otherwise good people?

Answer 1

The philosopher was Jean-Jacques Rousseau, who believed that all people were naturally good, and that society, including the government, school, art, and newspapers corrupted them.

For this reason, Rousseau proposed several utopias during his lifetime, in which people would stay pure, and build a perfect society. However, he was not naive and knew that his proposals were theoretical, and practically impossible to apply in the real world.
