EN SAVOIR PLUS Résumé

This volume offers a deep and nuanced philosophical examination of obedience, particularly in the context of the military profession and its relationship to civilian political life. Philosopher Pauline Shanks Kaurin explores the nature of obedience—its moral foundations, whether it should be considered a virtue, and under what conditions it is ethically justified or unjustified. She addresses critical questions such as, What are the responsibilities of soldiers and citizens when orders conflict with moral principles? Can disobedience ever be a duty? How should obedience be understood in modern democratic societies? Drawing on a wide array of disciplines—including philosophy, classical studies, political theory, literature, military history, and international relations—Kaurin uses real-world and historical cases to illuminate the ethical complexities at play. Although the primary focus is on military obedience, the book also explores parallels within broader civic life and democratic participation, raising timely questions about authority, moral agency, and civil-military relations. On Obedience offers valuable insight for anyone interested in ethics, leadership, citizenship, and the responsibilities that come with power and service.
