What is the duty of the individual when faced with unjust laws? In On the Duty of Civil Disobedience, Henry David Thoreau delivers a powerful argument for nonviolent resistance against government policies that violate moral principles. First published in 1849, this groundbreaking essay has inspired generations of activists, from Mahatma Gandhi to Martin Luther King Jr.

Drawing from his own experience of refusing to pay taxes in protest of slavery and the Mexican-American War, Thoreau makes a compelling case for the power of conscience over blind obedience. He urges citizens to withdraw their support from oppressive institutions and to stand firm in their convictions, even in the face of punishment.

A timeless and thought-provoking work, On the Duty of Civil Disobedience remains as relevant today as it was in the 19th century. Whether you are a student of philosophy, history, or political thought, this audiobook offers a profound exploration of justice, individual responsibility, and the enduring struggle for freedom.
