Definition(s)
- Political obligation is one of the oldest and most persistent problems of political philosophy. The Greek tragedian Sophocles raised it in Antigone, first performed around 440 BC, and Plato's dialogue Crito recounts the philosopher Socrates's response to the problem, in the face of his own death, some forty years later.
