Whether we should obey the law is a question that affects
everyone's day-to-day life, from traffic laws to taxes. Most people
obey out of habit, but the question remains: why are we morally
required to do so? If we fail to obey, the state may enforce
compliance, but is it right for it to do this, and if so, why? In
this book, George Klosko, a renowned authority on political
obligation, skillfully probes these questions. He considers various
prominent theories of obligation and shows why they are
unconvincing, contending that only an approach that interweaves
multiple principles, rooted in "fair play," is fully persuasive.
Klosko develops the fullest statement of his own well-known theory
of political obligation while providing a clear overview of the
subject. The result is both an essential introductory text for
students of political theory and philosophy and a cutting-edge,
original contribution to the debate.
