Book Synopsis Democracy and Disobedience by : Peter Singer
Book excerpt: Asking, Why, or in what circumstances, ought we to obey the law?, this work focuses on the common view that disobedience to the law, while justifiable in a dictatorship, is much more difficult to justify in a democracy. It then develops a theory of political obligation in an ideal democracy.
