Libraries are filled with thick tomes devoted to the topic. Henry David Thoreau, Mahatma Gandhi, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., canonical figures in the history of civil disobedience, not only inspired countless familiar and not-so-familiarmovements but also ignited extensive political and scholarly debate. From the late 1960s to the early 1980s, civil disobedience became a fashionable subject for discussion among lawyers, philosophers, political scientists, and many others. Prominent intellectuals, including Hannah Arendt, Ronald Dworkin, Jürgen Habermas, John Rawls, and Bertrand Russell, produced significant theoretical statements about it. What possibly remains to be said about something that fascinated so many of the most innovative and influential political thinkers in the last century? Ongoing political trends underscore the necessity of revisiting the theory and practice of civil disobedience. This volume aims to do so in a suitably systematic fashion. Most significantly, we are witnessing a proliferation of (sometimes novel) politically motivated illegalities, with grassroots activists frequently viewing their actions as examples of civil disobedience. Givenwidespread dissatisfactionwith normal political mechanisms even in well-established liberal democracies, in conjunction with the startling worldwide rise of authoritarian populism, the trend seems likely to continue, as a growing number of individuals and groups pursue controversial, unconventional, and oftentimes illegal political action.

This chapter focuses on violations of law by international activists, and also asylum seekers and economic migrants who enter a state without authorization. It analyzes their actions as potentially corrective and institutionally constructive practices within a framework of global citizenship. It also argues, however, that most such acts which cross state boundaries cannot be strictly characterized as civil disobedience. That is because civil disobedience is standardly framed as a response to a vice of political recalcitrance, where majorities or dominant power holders recognize the formally equal political standing of all persons in a polity but ignore some groups’ input and interests in decision making. By contrast, most trans-state acts are more aptly understood as responses to political arrogance. It involves a more wholesale and inappropriate rejection of persons’ standing to give input or lodge formal challenges. An implication is that forms of cross-border law breaking such as conscientious evasion which do not meet the strict requirements of civil disobedience could be justifiable. Reasons are offered to think that most unauthorized entry can be understood as justifiable global conscientious evasion.","PeriodicalId":165413,"journal":{"name":"The Cambridge Companion to Civil Disobedience","volume":"220 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130484438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
