Abstract

Civil disobedience as a form of resistance requires the passage of freedom as a human condition to political freedom. In order to show this thesis, this article has two parts: In the first, the emphasis is on the manifestation of the inner voice, the assumption of conscience, to build freedom as a human condition individually. This awakening in each individual is necessary so that civil disobedience, as a form of resistance, can pass from the private to the public sphere. In the second, it is made visible that in the face of civil disobedience, individuals enter into ambivalence. The appearance of the conflict between State and society shows in the individuals the feeling of ambivalence between obeying or disobeying the unjust, illegal, illegitimate and arbitrary power. The solution to this dilemma is individual and not public. It is up to each one to make a decision and assume its consequences.
