 phy (especially critical theory). Other areas of interest include the phil
 osophy of the social sciences\, moral philosophy\, Rousseau\, and sociolog

 ? >> In liberal discourse civil disobedience is often understood as a form
  of protest that involves breaking the law but restricts itself to being e
 xclusively symbolic\, nonviolent and reformist. This understanding stands 
 in tension with a variety of practices of disobedience involving forms of 
 disruption and direct confrontation often classified as violent and aiming
  at a more radical transformation of the existing system - while still cla
 iming to be civil. In this talk I will first problematize mainstream under
 standings of the ‘civil’ in ‘civil disobedience’ and then turn to digital 
 disobedience as a set of practices that exemplifies the complex reality of
  disobedience - a reality that raises a series of conceptual\, normative a
 nd political challenges for thinking about digital disobedience as civil\,
  including questions of anonymity\, public justification and political eff
 ectivity.\n
