• Extra informatie: - In Valeur de la liberté et adaptation de la République, Joseph Barthélemy explores the meaning and fragility of liberty within the democratic state, addressing both its philosophical foundations and its institutional challenges in the interwar period. Beginning with a definition of democracy and liberty, he examines the decline of post-Wilsonian idealism, the disunity among Western powers, and France’s wavering global role. Barthélemy warns of democracy’s vulnerability, drawing attention to international crises, the erosion of civil liberties, and the bureaucratic weakening of the state. He focuses on justice reform, the tension between social and political democracy, corporatism, and economic reorganization. He advocates for ministerial competence, a revised financial constitution, and a more assertive executive : proposing tools like referenda and dissolution to restore authority. Deeply concerned with preserving liberty, he argues that modern democracy must be pragmatically adapted to survive, defend justice, and maintain national coherence amidst growing internal and external pressures. Joseph Barthélemy (1874-1945) was a French jurist, legal scholar, and politician who played a complex and controversial role, being an esteemed constitutional lawyer, he became Minister of Justice in the Vichy-government during World War 2.
