Itcertainlyseemslessplausiblethatmembershipinapoliticalcommunityisin itselfasignificantelementofwhatmakeslifeworthliving. Andthevalueofsuchmembershipseemsmuchmoreabletosurvive undiscoveredbreachesofobligationthanthevalueofafriendship,suggesting thatloyaltyisnotconstitutiveofthatvalue.(relatedly:couldweeverbe requiredbypoliticalobligationtodosomethingthatwouldbringthepolitical associationtoanend?) Itseemslikethevaluewegetoutofmembershipinpoliticalassociationsis different:suchassociationsareinstrumentallyvaluable.membershipinapolitical communityisnotitself initsownright anessentialelementofagoodlife,but suchmembershipcanhelpussecuremanygoodsthatareessentialtolivingwell: health,security,etc. Ifthisisright,thenpoliticalobligationisnotprimarilyanobligationtoactoutof loyalty;ratheritisadutythatderivesfromthedutytopursuethosegoodswhich politicalassociationsareinstrumentalinattaining. Thissuggeststhatpoliticalobligationshaveinonewayamorelimitedscope than,say,obligationsoffriendship:unlikethecaseofobligationsoffriendship, theobligationmaynotbindustoobeyincircumstanceswheredisobedience wouldbeundiscovered,andwouldnotunderminetheabilityoftheassociation tofulfillitsinstrumentalrole(e.g.,thestop signinthedesert). Andunlikethecaseofobligationsoffriendship,politicalobligationcouldnever requireustoundertakeactsthatwouldresultinthedissolutionofthe association. Andfinally,andmostimportantlyforourpresentpurposes,thissuggeststhat politicalobligations,unlikeobligationsoffriendship,donotgeneratereasons thatareindependentofourothermoralreasons,tobeweighedintothebalance ofreasons.rather,atleastinthecaseoflegitimateauthorities,reflectand replacethoseotherreasons. This,ofcourse,isRaz sview. Razdefendsaserviceconceptionoflegitimateauthority,accordingtowhichtheprimary functionofgovernmentisto help[thegoverned]actonthereasonswhichbindthem. (p. 21) Thatis,incontrasttoDworkin,Razseesthevalueofmembershipinapoliticalcommunity asinstrumental.
