Answer:

A. Legal positivism

Explanation:

Legal positivism is a school of  thought that was developed in the early 18th century and focuses in the fact that rules become laws and that they create obligations that are legal and that people are supposed to comply with. In other words, a law is a rule that comes from people who have certain authority and that the society accepts.

In this example, Thoreau refused to pay his taxes when the States declared war on Mexico, his neighbor agreed that war was unjust buy paid his taxes because the law required him to pay the tax. In this case, the neighbor is taking a rule as a law (even though he considers it unfair) because someone with authority said so. Thus, this would be an example of Legal Positivism.

What causes government instability
elena-s [515]
I think the prime reason why a government would be unstable is when the government's actions and powers do not match with the needs of the populace. Those needs can be many different things and can be different things at different times: food, shelter, infrastructure, protection from bad neighbors, protection from invaders... the list would take me a day and a half.

If you look back at the collapse of the USSR, there was a misalignment between the people's needs and what the government gave. If you look at the current USA, the least stable places are where government is deliberately creating friction with the citizens, and close to that are the places where government is not creating a good framework for people's needs to be met.

Corruption can be a symptom of this mismatch, but in and of itself is not the prime reason for instability. Go look at various nation-states throughout history. The unstable governments were and are the ones where a large segment of people felt the government wasn't doing anything to help them with their needs.
