Recenzii
Civil Disobedience is essential reading on modern protest and its origins. In particular, Tony Milligan critically evaluates with clarity and insight such key contemporary issues as the Occupy Movement, abortion and animal liberation. This is an important book in a vital field that deserves serious attention.
The occupy movement serves as a reminder of the important role civil disobedience continues to play in contemporary political society. Tony Milligan's treatment of the complex and constantly evolving concept of civil disobedience is as sophisticated as it is timely. I welcome this contribution to the literature and I look forward to renewed debate on this important issue; including an ongoing discussion about what civil disobedience means for nonhuman animals.
