Which of the following is a compulsory membership?
Answer Details
The answer is "state." In a state, membership is compulsory for all individuals living within its territory. It is not possible to opt out of membership in a state, as this would require leaving its territory entirely. A state has a monopoly on the legitimate use of force within its territory, and its laws apply to all individuals within its borders. In contrast, membership in a community, society, or club is voluntary and individuals can choose whether or not to participate.
