Jean-Louis de Lolme : ウィキペディア英語版 | Jean-Louis de Lolme
Jean-Louis de Lolme or Delolme〔"" in the ''Encyclopædia Britannica'', 1878.〕 (1740 – 16 July 1806) was a Swiss and English political theorist and writer on constitutional matters, born in the then semi-independent city of Geneva. As an adult he moved to England, and became a British subject. His most famous work was ''Constitution de l'Angleterre'' (''The Constitution of England'', 1771), which was subsequently published in English as well. In it, de Lolme advocated a constitutional form of government enshrining the principle that monarchy, aristocracy and democracy should be balanced against each other. He also praised the element of representative democracy in the constitution, and urged an extension of suffrage. The work influenced many of the framers of the United States Constitution. ==Early life== De Lolme was born in the then semi-independent city of Geneva in 1740. He studied for the bar, and had begun to practise law when he was obliged to emigrate on account of a pamphlet he wrote entitled ''Examen de trois parts de droit'' (''Examination of Three Parts of Rights''), which gave offence to the authorities of the town. He took refuge in England, where he lived for several years on the meagre and precarious income derived from occasional contributions to various journals.
