17"There are two types of laws: just and unjust. Every individual in a society has a responsibility to obey just laws and, even more importantly, to disobey and resist unjust laws."
1. law:(2) : the action of laws considered as a means of redressing wrongs;
also
: LITIGATION (3) : the agency of or an agent of established law
c : a rule or order that it is advisable or obligatory to observe
先来个定义没问题吧~~~
用处:Focus on (3)、(4)的advisable。先引入一下,
正是因为law是由某一agency or agent 制定的。人无完人(incidentally,这句话的英文到底怎么说呐?native的~),所以可能存在unjust的law,which need us to disobey。
2.Order: 秩序
用处:Law存在的意义和目的即使保障社会存在一个良好秩序.
3.unjust: a): characterized by injustice : UNFAIR
The sentence of six months imprisonment was most unjust.
六个月监禁的判决极其不公。
All the rigid rule of his forebears, all the domination of an unjust social order, grip him.
父辈的严峻的法规,不公平的社会制度,把他牢牢地控制住了。
4.Disobey:to be disobedient
disobey a commanding officer
不服从指挥官
用处:Disobey的方式问题。貌似仍然是 violent & non-violent~? 而且disobey本身也是一种通过大众来修正法律的方式.
5.Criteria: a standard on which a judgment or decision may be based. 标准
Success in making money is not always a good criterion of success in life.
能挣钱并不一定是衡量人生幸福的可靠标准。
用处:评价law是不是just的标准是什么.
6.Right:something that one may properly claim as due。权利
用处:Focus on ”due”,应得的. 当law违背了basic rights时, there is a need to disobey them.
7.Obligation: something (as a formal contract, a promise, or the demands of conscience or custom) that obligates one to a course of action.义务
A compact is an agreement or binding obligation.
契约是一个协议或具有约束力的义务。
用处:与权利相对,有得到权利才有义务(这是不是算另一个ISSUE了…),当一种law只能一味的要求某一特定人群履行义务而无法给予其权利,这也是的unjust的law,不应obey.
8.Nuremberg laws:纽伦堡法. The Nuremberg Laws deprived Jews of German citizenship and prohibited marriage between Jews and other Germans. The existence of laws identifying who was Jewish made it easier for the Nazis to introduce legislation restricting Jewish rights
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuremberg_Laws\
用处:反例.纳粹的的反犹太法案是unjust, should disobey.
9.Traffic Laws
用处:正面例子. 基本的交通法是有助于维护社会的秩序,使人们安定生活的.
10.non-violent: a philosophy and strategy for social change that rejects the use of violence. 非暴力的
用处:暴力的disobey方式通常无法取得良好和长久的效果,而且会伤害更多人.
