Why obey the Law?

Why obey the Law?

Philosophy Club! by Philosophy Club Members

Episode notes

In one of our most contentious episodes yet! Beau, Mike, Logan and Ben try to reconcile radically different views of what is Law, what is a State (or a state) and what claims a state has on its citizens (if any). They will discuss the command theory of law, the social contract, Max Weber's definition of a state and disagree of the concept and relevance of Legitimacy. It's an exciting Philosophical throw-down you don't want to miss!
