He argued that when conscience and law do not coincide, individuals have the obligation to promote justice by disobeying the law. Civil disobedience was a major tactic in the women’s suffrage movement, Mohandas Gandhi’s campaign for independence in India, the civil rights movement in the USA, and the abolition of apartheid in South Africa. More recent examples of civil disobedience campaigns include the refusal to pay the Poll Tax and the Poll Tax riots in the UK in 1990, and the activities of some animal rights and anti-abortion activists." u/q http://www.idebate.org/debatabase/topic_details.php?topicID=86 q/ “Henry David Thoreau first articulated the tenets of civil disobedience in an 1849 essay, “On the Duty of Civil Disobedience”.
