Definición

  • Classical republicanism is a political and philosophical orientation that emphasizes a notion of freedom opposed to that under which slaves operate—namely, that of having a master, of being owned or dominated by another. It is an orientation that draws heavily on the Roman idea of the res publica, the “public interest” that many Roman thinkers argued had to be collectively and actively attended to if human beings were to safeguard their lives and communities from tyrannical actions.
