Soft coverThis volume of the Classics of Political Thought series offers a new edition of this key work of the Enlightenment, in which Montesquieu, among other things, established his famous theory of the separation of powers, which has played such an important role in the development of of political modernity. The new translation by Demetrio Castro is completed with an introduction that helps to place the work in its historical context and a wide critical apparatus that is added to the notes written by Montesquieu himself.
