How does Jean Bodin define absolute rule?

sammy [17]

The writings of Jean Bodin provides us with an early theorisation of the idea of sovereignty even though the examples he uses are quite extensive. Essential to Bodin's notion of sovereignty is that the power the sovereign holds must be absolute and permanent. If a ruler holds absolute power for the duration of his life he can be said to be sovereign. In contrast, an elected official or some other person that holds limited powers can not be described to be sovereign. Although at times Bodin suggests that the people are sovereign, his definition of sovereignty as absolute, unlimited and enduring power points purposively towards a positive association of sovereignty and a singular monarchical, or even tyrannical, power.

Another qualification that Bodin introduces into the definition of sovereignty as absolute and perpetual is one that will become increasingly important in subsequent theorisations, culminating in the work of Carl Schmitt. For Bodin, a sovereign prince is one who is exempt from obedience to the laws of his predecessors and more importantly, those issued by himself. Sovereignty rests in being above, beyond or excepted from the law. Although it occupies a subordinate place in Bodin's theorisation, it could be said that this exception from being subject to the law is the quintessential condition of sovereignty in so far as it is understood politically.

Although for Bodin sovereignty is characterised by absolute and perpetual power he goes on to make a series of important qualifications to this concept. These come from two principle concerns. The first is real politics - Bodin seems to be aware that absolute power could licence behaviour injurious to sovereign authority. Hence for example a sovereign cannot and should not confiscate property nor break contractual agreements made with other sovereigns, estates nor private persons. The second reason is Bodin's underlying theological notion of divine authority and natural law. A sovereign may put aside civil law, but he must not question natural law (in which it appears right of property is sanctioned). Saying this, it is ultimately from this divine authority that the earthly right of sovereign power is legitimated. The prince literary does god's bidding, and yet by virtue of this can do wrong. Hopefully this helps out some :)

Which fact could be used to elaborate on the reason that Rudolf Hoess chose to use Zyklon B instead of carbon monoxide in the ne

Allisa [31]

The reason that Rudolf Hoess chose to use Zyklon B instead of carbon monoxide in the newly constructed gas chambers of Auschwitz is It was possible to disseminate Zyklon B in a huge room, which enabled the execution of a greater number of inmates at a faster time interval.

This is further explained below.

<h3>What is Rudolf Hoess?</h3>

Generally, Rudolf Hess was Adolf Hitler's longtime personal assistant and served as the deputy party chairman of the Nazi Party up to 1941. He was born in 1894 and passed away in 1987. In May of 1941, Hess boarded a plane and traveled to Scotland in the hopes of brokering a peace agreement between Germany and Britain. He was taken into custody without delay and sent to jail.

In conclusion, During the year 1944, when significant numbers of transports were arriving at crematorium V, the individuals who had been designated to die in the gas chamber also disrobed in the open air. After the Sonderkommando had been housed in the area designated as the undressing room in crematorium IV, the individuals who had been assigned to die there undressed in a barracks that had been specifically built for them.

The members of the SS prevented the individuals who were doomed to die from being informed of what was in store for them. They were informed that they will soon be transferred to the camp, but before that, they were required to get disinfection and take a shower. The victims were forced to strip before being escorted into the gas chamber, where they were then sealed in and put to death with Zyklon B gas.

After breathing 70 mg of hydrogen cyanide or Zyklon B, a human person weighing 68 kilograms (150 lb) has less than two minutes to live before succumbing to their poison. while lethal levels of carbon monoxide may take effect in just five minutes. When present in low quantities, it takes a greater amount of time for the substance to have an effect on the body.

It was possible to disseminate Zyklon B in a huge room, which enabled the execution of a greater number of inmates at a faster time interval.
