In this provocative essay, Frédéric Gros explores the roots of political obedience. Social conformity, economic subjection, respect for authorities, constitutional consensus? Examining the various styles of obedience provides tools to study, invent and induce new forms of civic disobedience and lyrical protest. Nothing can be taken for granted: neither supposed certainties nor social conventions, economic injustice or moral conviction. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThinking philosophically requires us never to accept truths and generalities that seem obvious. It restores a sense of political responsibility. At a time when the decisions of experts are presented as the result of icy statistics and anonymous calculations, disobeying becomes an assertion of humanity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTo philosophize is to disobey. This book is a call for critical democracy and ethical resistance.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrédéric Gros\u003c\/b\u003e is a professor of philosophy at the University of Paris XII and the Institute of Political Studies, Paris.
