The lecture begins with an introduction to the semester and a
discussion on the political dimension of rules. It then delves
into the concept of the state, focusing on its territorial and
political aspects. The subsequent chapters explore the state as a
territorial entity, its borders, sovereignty, and functions, as
well as the relationship between the state and its people,
including the concept of the nation and representation of the
state through its people. The conversation delves into the
radical concept of the state as a union of individuals seeking a
common representative, introduced by Hobbes. It explores the
emergence of the modern state concept, the dualism of the state's
territorial and personal aspects, and the significance of state
citizenship and nationality. The discussion also highlights the
inclusion and exclusion dynamics within the state, shedding light
on the complex relationship between human rights and the state
concept. The conversation delves into the complex issues of
statelessness, political association, and the implications of
territorial and personal sovereignty. It explores the case of
Palestine, the question of statehood and human rights, and the
intersection of political association and statehood. The

sovereignty.
