Giới thiệu về tác giả

Charles de Secondat, Baron de Montesquieu, known simply as Montesquieu, was a French judge, man of letters, and political philosopher. He is best known for his articulation of the theory of separation of powers, which has been implemented in many constitutions throughout the world. He is famous for his influential work, ‘The Spirit of the Laws’ (1748), which is a pioneering analysis on comparative law where he covered topics ranging from law, social life, and the study of anthropology to the various government structures. This book was fundamental in the development of political science and sociology. Montesquieu’s literature often reflects the Enlightenment spirit, characterized by reason, wit, and the promotion of reforms in society. He was also known for his earlier publication ‘Persian Letters’ (1721), which offered a satirical look at European society through the fictional correspondence of two Persian travelers. Montesquieu’s work in ‘The Spirit of the Laws’ not only preceded the establishment of the United States Constitution but also heavily influenced its framers. His clear division of political powers into the legislative, executive, and judicial branches shaped the modern concept of checks and balances in governments across the globe. His ideas on liberty and anti-despotism have cemented his place as a powerful intellectual force during the Age of Enlightenment and continue to resonate within contemporary political discourse.
