The Bill Of Obligations by Richard N. Haass
The Ten Tasks of the Modern President
A concise call to rebalance rights with responsibilities, arguing that democratic society will only endure if citizens accept a set of shared obligations alongside their freedoms; the book identifies a series of concrete habits—from participating in civic life, obeying the law, paying taxes and serving when called, to seeking truth, showing respect for others, and supporting institutions—that can reduce polarization, curb misinformation, and strengthen social cohesion, while also examining the roles of leaders, institutions, technology, and global interdependence in making such a compact feasible.
