The Right to Dissent in the Socio-legal Context: Reimagining Citizenship, Strengthening Democracy

'Let’s agree to disagree’ may sum up the gist of the word 'dissent' in simple terms. Dissent generally, implies disagreement, criticism, questioning, or protest against the coercive decision or unjust laws and policies imposed by a person/s in authority. Explored constructively, peaceful and nonviolent dissent may lead to dialogue, open discussions, entrenchment of democratic ideas, undoing injustices, and ending oppression. Collective disobedience often results in a constructive social transformation.
