Resistance to Civil Government, also known as Civil Disobedience for short, is an essay by American transcendentalist Henry David Thoreau that was first published in 1849.

In it, Thoreau argues that individuals shouldn't permit governments to overrule or atrophy their consciences, which they have a duty to avoid allowing such acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated partially by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican American War (1846–1848). Thoreau's basic premise is that a better law than civil law demands the obedience of the individual. Human law and government are subordinate.
