Civil disobedience is its cornerstone, at least as a concept, in the figure of Henry David Thoreau. This classical view is discussed both Arendt and Rawls, so that their own conceptual frameworks have (dis) similarities and improvements over the previous one. So, this article will show the most important thesis of civil disobedience in Thoreau, Arendt and Rawls, to reread as dissent, ie, in both societal model based on the discussion of injustice.
