REPRESENTATION, SOVEREIGNTY AND GOVERNMENT IN THOMAS HOBBES
Keywords:
Representation, Sovereignty, Government, HobbesAbstract
The text deals with the concept of representation in its relation to the concept and sovereignty, in Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679). The work studied is Leviathan, of 1651. The study shows that sovereignty is founded through the original legal act that establishes an artificial person to represent everyone. This artificial thing is the State. The State, however, is different from its government, although they are functionally the same.
