Lectures On The Principles Of Political Obligation (1895)

""Lectures On The Principles Of Political Obligation"" is a book written by Thomas Hill Green, originally published in 1895. This book is a collection of lectures given by Green at Oxford University, in which he discusses the fundamental principles of political obligation. Green explores the concept of political obligation, which refers to the moral duty of individuals to obey the laws and authority of their government. He examines the various theories of political obligation, including the social contract theory, and argues that political obligation is not based solely on consent, but also on the idea of the common good. Green's lectures also address the relationship between individual freedom and political obligation, and the role of the state in promoting the common good. This book is considered a classic work in the field of political philosophy and provides valuable insights into the nature of political obligation and the foundations of political authority.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
