Answer:

This person is using post-conventional reasoning.

Explanation:

Kohlberg's stages of moral development center around 3 levels:

  1. Pre-conventional: generally a <em>child's sense of morality. </em>
  2. Conventional: the sense of morality develops according to<em> social and personal relations. </em>
  3. Post-conventional: the sense of morality goes deeper, centering on more abstract principles. A post-conventionalist tends to <em>live by his/her own principles. </em>

In this case, the person arrested for stealing the documents states that he/she has a moral obligation to prove that the company is using unsafe chemicals and the public has a right to know about it.

His/her <em>sense of morality</em><em> goes deeper than any societal relation. </em>The person <em>acted to his/her own accord,</em> deciding to take certain justice into his/her own hands, thus he/she is using post-conventional reasoning.

Gandhi's salt march is one of the more famous examples. It was the nonviolent resistance that urged for India’s independence and against the colonial rule of the British monarchy. In 1930 the British government introduced taxes on Indian salt and strengthen their monopoly by prohibiting Indians to collect and sell salt. <u>Gandhi and his followers started daily marches during which they symbolically carried salt that has symbolically been picked up from the beach, thus breaking the rule.</u>

<u />

Similarly, the Civil rights movement has been fighting racist laws and ideas against African Americans during the 60s in the US.<u> </u><u>The African-American community showed their resistance by breaking segregation laws with bus boycotts and freedom rides, as well as participating in non-violent sit-ins, marches, and demonstrations. </u>
