Montesquieu. Charles Louis de Secondat, Lord de la Brède and Baron de Montesquieu. He was a French chronicler and political thinker who lived during the Enlightenment and is one of the most relevant Enlightenment philosophers, especially for the articulation of the theory of the separation of powers, which is taken for granted in modern debates about governments, and has been implemented in many constitutions throughout the world. His thought must be framed within the critical spirit of the French Enlightenment, evident in features such as religious tolerance, the aspiration for liberty and his concept of happiness in the civic sense. It is characterized by his search for concrete and empirical knowledge.
