The third part of the book focuses on the practical implications of these theories, looking at issues such as citizenship, loyalty, and the role of the state in regulating individual behavior.Throughout the book, Rigg provides a detailed and nuanced analysis of the different theories and ideas that have shaped our understanding of the obligations that citizens have to their state.
