Henry David Thoreau 
Civil Disobedience [EPUB ebook] 

Apoio

‘Civil Disobedience’ is a seminal work by transcendentalist philosopher and essayist Henry David Thoreau. Originally titled ‘Resistance to Civil Government, ‘ this powerful essay explores the individual’s moral responsibility to challenge unjust laws and government actions through nonviolent resistance.
Thoreau, a fervent advocate of individualism and self-reliance, draws on his own experience of spending a night in jail for refusing to pay a poll tax that supported the Mexican-American War and the institution of slavery. In this essay, he articulates the principles of passive resistance and conscientious objection, emphasizing the importance of personal integrity and moral courage in the face of oppressive authority.
As an early and influential treatise on the concept of civil disobedience, Thoreau’s work has inspired countless individuals and movements advocating for social justice and change. His call for citizens to prioritize their own conscience over the demands of the state continues to resonate, making ‘Civil Disobedience’ a timeless and thought-provoking exploration of the tensions between individual ethics and the obligations of citizenship. Whether you are a student of philosophy, political science, or an advocate for social change, this essay remains a beacon of inspiration and a catalyst for discussions on the role of the individual in shaping a just society.
