English commentary: "This paper aims to make sense of a sort of obligation in Spinoza’s work, even though the philosopher seems to refuse to base political obedience on the obligation toward the dictates of reason; it aims to determine to what people are bound or not bound. This analysis attempts to rethink the place of reason in political and ethical processes with a view to greater freedom; this requires a consideration of the point of view that people have on their own life."
