Ian Shapiro examines the fundamental question of when governments deserve allegiance and when they should be resisted. By evaluating major political traditions—including utilitarianism, Marxism, and social contract theory—the work provides a rigorous framework for assessing the legitimacy of state power. This analysis bridges the gap between abstract moral philosophy and the practical realities of modern governance.
