DESCRIPTION:From Thomas Hobbes to Joseph Raz philosophical accounts of auth
 ority have struggled to accommodate its dependence on doing the right thin
 g. The delivery of substantively defensible results remains relevant\, eve
 n in the case of Hobbes\, despite authority’s pre-emptive effect. While 
 we have duties\, if someone has authority over us\, simply because the rel
 evant person or institution has laid these down for us\, the authority is 
 rooted in a status that can be lost if the authority does not deliver subs
 tantively appealing results.\nSpeaker: Prof. Dr. Alexander Somek (Universi
 ty of Vienna)
