After clarifying the possibility of justified uncivil disobedience, Delmas examines how different moral principles, which are traditionally used to justify the obligation to obey the law, can require citizens to resist injustice. Delmas leads us to think about the implication of the second half of the duty of justice: the duty to help establish just institutions. In this way, our duty to resist injustice is still the duty we should discharge as citizens, rather than a universal natural duty (such as the duty of justice or the Samaritan duty) that we, as moral persons, owe to others.
