«Discours de la servitude volontaire» is the political essay by Étienne de La Boétie, published by Folio in French.
Étienne de La Boétie reflects on why societies accept tyranny: he argues that the sovereign's power rests on the consent of subjects. If the people stopped submitting, the oppressor would be left without force; freedom, therefore, is within reach of those who decide to stop obeying.
