A Natural Law Approach to Free Speech and Civil Disobedience
This is a jurisprudential case for the legal right to disobey laws deemed grossly unjust, and a guidebook on how people may lawfully practise civil disobedience. Published by Sidestream Press and printed by Oxford Printery.
Under what circumstances is it permissible to disobey a law adopted in accordance with the requirements of the legal system? Taking a natural law approach, Augusto Zimmermann and Gabriël Moens trace the right to resist from classical, biblical and early modern sources through to the challenges of modern democracies.
Free speech, freedom of the press, the erosion of the rule of law, and the encroachments of an increasingly authoritarian state: the authors anchor the right to resist in natural law, an objective moral standard every government must obey.
A lucid, rigorous, and wide-ranging exploration of higher law jurisprudence and its enduring relevance. Stefano Salemi · University of Oxford
Printed & bound by Oxford Printery of Wagga Wagga
Fourteen chapters, from the classical and Christian foundations of the higher law to free speech, the press, democracy and the rule of law today.
