Greece. J.B. Observations on particular articles
Here a sort of paradox – a sort of apparent inconsistency
presents itself: In the scale of power, those, over whom all power is encreased, superior
to those, by whom all power is encreased. The inconsistency is
however only in the expression: for in fact the like have place
in every political State, to which the appellation name of a Representative
democracy is applied or applicable. On all days in the year but one,
and on that one day to all purposes effects but one, the members
of the Constitutive department are subject to the those of the Operative:
but to that one effect on that one day the subordination
is reversed, and the members of the Operative department are
subject to those of the Constitutive. It were hard indeed, if possibility
were not sufficiently proved by fact.
