Abstract

RESUMEN:

Aunque la tradición de la desobediencia civil y, más lejos aún, la del derecho a resistencia tiene antecedentes muy claros, hoy se ha producido un giro. El incremento del fenómeno de la indignación y revuelta contra el sistema ha propiciado lo que algunos consideran estratégia de desobediencia e incluso política de desobediência. Em este artículo se discute esa hipótesis desde la experiencia que procura la experiencia vivida en los dos últimos años en Cataluña. 

ABSTRACT:

We are possibly facing a turning point in the tradition of the right of resistance and even civil disobedience. From the globalization of the phenomenon of the indignados, the recourse to the strategy of disobedience grows. There is even a claim for a policy of disobedience. In this article we draw on the experience of the last two years in Catalonia to discuss these theses 

RESUMO:

Embora a tradição da desobediência civil e, mais ainda, a do direito à resistência tenha antecedentes muito claros, hoje houve uma reviravolta. O aumento do fenômeno da indignação e revolta contra o sistema levou ao que alguns consideram uma estratégia de desobediência e até uma política de desobediência. Neste artigo, esta hipótese é discutida a partir da experiência dos últimos dois anos na Catalunha.
