Correct answer: (C) Communitarian thinkers give more importance to the individual than to the community — The claim that communitarians give more importance to the individual than the community is false, so that is the answer.
Explanation
★The claim that communitarians give more importance to the individual than the community is false, so that is the answer.
★Communitarian thought actually gives priority to the community over the individual.
★It stresses community based rights and counters the liberal theory of individualism.
★Robert Nozick does belong to the libertarian school, so that statement is true.
