Abstract

The Spirit of Laws, published in 1748 by Charles-Louis de Secondat, Baron de Montesquieu, is a fundamental work of political theory and Enlightenment thought. More than a legal treatise, it stands as a sociopolitical and philosophical analysis in which the author examines the nature and function of laws in diverse historical, geographical, and cultural contexts, emphasizing their relative character and dependence on the specific circumstances of each society.
