Bolívar's Doctrine of the State

Simón Bolívar’s Doctrine of the State emphasizes the importance of strong governance combined with the protection of individual freedoms. Bolívar believed that a stable state should promote the common good and ensure justice while preventing tyranny. He advocated for a republican government, with an active role of the people, but also recognized the need for strong leadership to guide the nation. Bolívar's ideas reflect a balance between authority and liberty, aiming to unite diverse regions and peoples under a cohesive and equitable political system, particularly in the context of Latin America's struggles for independence and self-governance.
