The issues surrounding civil disobedience have been discussed since at least 399 BC and, in the wake of such recent events as the protest at Tiananmen Square, are still of great relevance. By presenting classic and current philosophical reflections on the issues, this book presents all the basic materials needed for a philosophical assessment of the nature and justification of civil disobedience. The pieces included range from classic essays by leading contemporary thinkers such as Rawls, Raz and Singer. Hugo Adam Bedau's introduction sets out the issues and shows how the various authors shed

Hans von Dohnanyi war eine der bedeutendsten Figuren der Militäropposition gegen Hitler. Er wurde 1943 von der Gestapo festgenommen und kurz vor Kriegsende im Konzentrationslager Sachsenhausen hingerichtet. Die Geschichtsforschung hat von ihm ein schwankendes Bild gezeichnet, da sie lange allein auf die Zeugnisse seiner früheren Verfolger angewiesen war und ihnen oft unkritisch folgte. Dohnanyis leichtfertigem Umgang mit finanziellen Dingen, so ihr Ergebnis, sei es zuzuschreiben gewesen, dass der Widerstand in Gefahr geriet. Die Juristin Elisabeth Chowaniec zeichnet auf der Basis bislang unzugänglicher Dokumente die Hintergründe, die einzelnen Etappen und die skandalöse Durchführung des Verfahrens gegen Dohnany nach und leistet damit einen Beitrag zu seiner politisch-moralischen Rehabilitation.
