The theory and practice of civil disobedience has once again taken
on import, given recent events. Considering widespread
dissatisfaction with normal political mechanisms, even in
well-established liberal democracies, civil disobedience remains
hugely important, as a growing number of individuals and groups
pursue political action. 'Digital disobedients', Black Lives Matter
protestors, Extinction Rebellion climate change activists, Hong
Kong activists resisting the PRC's authoritarian clampdown...all
have practiced civil disobedience. In this Companion, an
interdisciplinary group of scholars reconsiders civil disobedience
from many perspectives. Whether or not civil disobedience works,
and what is at stake when protestors describe their acts as civil
disobedience, is systematically examined, as are the legacies and
impact of Henry Thoreau, Mahatma Gandhi, and Martin Luther King.
