Conscience and conviction : the case for civil disobedience

This 100,000-word monograph is the culmination of ten years of research and four years of writing on conscience, conviction, and civil disobedience. Its eight chapters incorporate three peer-reviewed articles in high-ranking journals and one collection contribution (all published since 2008) as well as substantial unpublished work. The book deploys legal, philosophical, and political resources to present a novel account that is described as ‘a starting point for future philosophical discussion of conscience and the protection of conscience in a liberal society’ (NDPR).
