Solution

The correct option is B T.H. Green
T.H.Green explain the term political obligation in his book "Lectures on the Principles of Political Obligation" as "that the term include both the obligation of the subject towards the sovereign, of the citizen towards the state, and the obligations of individuals to each other as enforced by a political superior." His purpose is to consider the moral function or object served by law, or by the system of rights and obligations which the state enforces, and in so doing to discover the true ground or justification for obedience to law.
