Abstract Civil Disobedience in Democratic Society: Philosophical and Ethical Criticism Sivalee Sirilai Associate Fellow the Academy of Political Sciences, The Royal Institute, Thailand The concept and phenomena of civil disobedience arose since in the ancient Greek democratic society. The purpose of civil disobedience is to deny law and policy that is not legitimate and beneficial to the whole society, especially it dehumanizes human dignity. Some philosophers think that, civil disobedience is an inherent moral right of human being not a right given by society. The limitation is, civil disobedienee should be practiced without and doers have to accept the result. Other philosophers think in democratic society the rule of law is the supreme principle, then it is a moral obligation for individual to respect and obey the law inorder to avoid disocial that may lead to revolution. Key words : civil disobedience, democracy, right, law
