Abstract (EN)

Etienne de La Boétie, who has made a name for himself for centuries with a short text he left behind despite passing away at a very young age, questions concepts that were far ahead of his time and perhaps even today, in times of political turmoil, that could be considered taboo. Does man have an innate desire to serve? This genius Jurist and Philosopher of the 16th Century, Etienne de La Boétie's complex relationship with the Absolutist Monarchies and his lasting legacy as a thinker who challenged the foundations of tyranny underline his importance in the history of political thought and legal philosophy. His contributions continue to inspire debates about the nature of authority, the dynamics of power, and the search for justice in society. In the study, the concept of "voluntary servitude" put forward by Etiénne de La Boétie will be interpreted through the concepts of absolutism, sovereignty, tyranny and evaluated in the context of legal philosophy.
