This paper discusses Condorcet’s concept of Republic expressed in the speech: A Republic or if a king is necessary for the preservation of freedom. This speech was given in the Federal Friends of the Truth Assembly and published by Social Circle, possibly in 1793. In this speech, Condorcet very clearly defines his concept of Republic, constituted of legislative and executive powers and fulfilling the will of the people. This is to preserve the freedom of the people, protecting the Republican regime in all its amplitude, contrary to the monarchy.Downloads
