We are a team of Czech and French high school students, teachers and professionnal researchers collaborating in an Erasmus+ exchange project entitled WE RESiST (We Rethink Environmental Sustainability in Schools Together)
As part of this project, we are conducting a study with students as co-researchers, under the supervision of Pascale Haag (EHESS), and we invite you to participate in this survey. Our aims is to explore upper secondary school student's attitudes and understanding of civil disobedience, defined here as “a public, nonviolent, conscientious yet political act, contrary to law, carried out to communicate opposition to a government’s law and policy”.
To clarify this concept, please consider the following examples:
Examples of civil disobedience:
-
A peaceful protest or sit-in intended to communicate political opposition without resorting to violence
-
Throwing a can of soup at a painting without actually damaging it to indicate political opposition
Acts that are generally not considered civil disobedience include:
-
Violent or destructive behaviors, which do not reflect a nonviolent approach
-
Isolated actions lacking a clear, politically motivated purpose
-
Any act which is not contrary to law.
Thank you for contributing to this research project.
There are 49 questions in this survey.
