Description

Explore the fundamental questions of political theory with Political Obligation by Professor Flathman. Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Political Thought and Political Philosophy series, this work examines the conditions under which obedience and disobedience are required or justified. Originally published in 1972, this text investigates the distinctions between authority and power, as well as the differences between legitimate and illegitimate government. The author analyzes the relationship between having an obligation and the freedom to act, while comparing political, legal, and moral obligations. Through a lucid and stimulating argument, Professor Flathman develops his own modified utilitarian approach to these complex issues. This book serves as a significant resource for students and scholars interested in the history of political thought and the nature of governance.
