Description
A comprehensive exploration of the fundamental questions in political and moral philosophy, Moral Principles and Political Obligations examines the major competing theories from Locke to Rawls and Nozick.
John Simmons seeks to understand the ancient problem of political obligation: under what conditions and for what reasons are we morally bound to obey the law and support our country's institutions?
This thought-provoking work offers a nuanced analysis of the complex relationships between morality, politics, and human obligations.
