Spirit Of Laws (Volume 1)

Spirit of Laws (Volume 1)

by Charles-Louis de Secondat, baron de La Brède et de Montesquieu

Spirit of the Laws is a seminal work of political theory that explores the relationship between government and society. Montesquieu argues that the best government is one that is based on the rule of law and that protects the rights of its citizens. He also advocates for the separation of powers and the checks and balances that prevent any one branch of government from becoming too powerful.
