A System of Rights

ISBN: 9780198273745 出版年：2003 页码：448 Martin, Rex Clarendon Press

In this paperback edition of a highly successful study, Professor Martin provides an original solution to one of the long-standing issues of political philosophy: the justification of political authority. The author constructs a model political system in which certain kinds of political rights are emphasized, and discusses what the implications of such a system might be for democratic institutions, political allegiance, punishment, and ultimately for the nature of authority itself.
