Authority

"Fabian Wendt has produced an elegant overview of recent discussions of both political and theoretical authority. Clear, thorough, and consistently insightful."
George Klosko, University of Virginia
 
"Fabian Wendt's fresh, penetrating analysis of the problems of political obligation and political authority is unsurpassed. Current approaches to this perennial topic and the future directions open to theorists are clarified with surgical precision. This book is both an accessible introduction for all and essential reading for specialists."
William A. Edmundson, Georgia State University
