Abstract
Throughout history, there have been countless instances of people protesting against the government, in order to bring the required change. Staged sit-ins, blockades, hunger strikes, and marches are some of the tactics used to pressurize government and organizations to change a particular law, which these protestors find morally wrong. This paper highlights the relevance of Civil Disobedience, and presents exactly what it entails. The paper explains why acts of civil disobedience are justified, and how to deal with the unsolvable dilemma caused by the conflict between moral and civil law.
