Elisabeth and Robert Badinter were an independent couple through the century. Between them, between law and philosophy, it is undoubtedly the spirit of Enlightenment and tolerance which serves as an elective affinity.
Their only common work, beyond the community of their fights, was a single book dating from 1988, a biography of mathematician Condorcet. No doubt they both loved the figure of this 18th century man of the Enlightenment that both loved so much. Unless they both find an ideal synthesis of all their research and interest and interest, it was profoundly the man who fought injustice.
