It discusses what political philosophy is about, its most important and enduring questions, and how to do political philosophy well. Throughout, the book discusses issues such as:
• Do we have a moral obligation to obey the law?
• What’s the value of equality?
• What’s the nature of justice?
• How can we answer philosophical questions about politics?
• Is political philosophy a form of activism? Or is it more like a science?
Written in an inviting and accessible style, Political Philosophy: The Basics offers an ideal starting point for anyone wishing to learn more about the philosophical study of politics.
