illuminista di razionalizzazione l'obiettivo rendere più efficiente l'amministrazione dello
stato che si sostituisce a livello locale ai piccoli domini di clero e nobiltà il suo
controllo arriva in ogni angolo di un territorio compatto delimitato da confini precisi connesso
da una rete di vie di comunicazione capillare e suddiviso in unità simili alle regioni ecco

di laicità di rispetto delle confessioni religiose e della proprietà privata lascia anche un codice
che recita la legge è uguale per tutti tutti sono uguali di fronte allo stato è un messaggio
forte un'idea di giustizia che attraversa tutta la società anche fuori dai tribunali
l'idea in ultima che oltre ai doveri imposti dallo stato i cittadini abbiano dei diritti
