    English version   Many Gabonese people are now talking only about liberation. They worship the CTRI in general and Brice-Clotaire Oligui-Nguema in particular.   These Gabonese claim to have been freed; This is a very good thing. But strangely, they put forward the argument that, in order to preserve this freedom, the military must be left in power for 5, 10, 15 and even 20 years. Paradox of paradoxes. We are so free that we want unelected people to lead us for a generation.   When we study the political psychology of the Gabonese people, we realize that the Gabonese see in republican political practice two great weaknesses: one social, the other institutional. ·          The Social weakness lies in the tendency of democracies to generate factions that continuously compete for power. ·          The institutional weakness results from the lack of speed of democracy, because of the plurality of decision-making centers and the continuous search for consensus.
