Think about the discussions on "Rationalism and Western criticism of reason," leads us to a series of thematic keys to understanding of Western society and its history. Faced with the possibility of extensive analysis, we chose to cut the constitution of the modern ideal of Western man. To this end, we point out some elements who think this new behavior as rationalism and freedom. For this we divide the text into three parts, the first X Rationalism Social Contract, Liberty X's second state, and finally, the third X Modernity behavior, seeking to explain how Western man has his particular conduct by modernity.
