3. One respect in which usurpation is more hateful than absolute despotism
4. Usurpation cannot survive in this period of our civilisation
5. Can usurpation not be maintained by force?
6. The kind of liberty offered to men at the end of the last century
7. The modern imitators of the republics of antiquity

15. The effect of illegal and despotism measures on regular governments themselves
16. Implications of the preceding considerations in relation to despotism
17. Causes which make despotism particularly impossible at this age of our civilisation
18. As usurpation cannot be maintained through despotism, since in our days despotism itself cannot last, usurpation has no chance of enduring
