English commentary: "[...] Spinozism and one-substance philosophy, unlike other types of philosophy, creates an inherent linkage between equality as a fully secularized moral principle and the idea, first formulated by Spinoza in modern times, that democracy is the most natural and the most conducive form of state for society's welfare and that of the individual" (p. 39).
