Argument

Rebellion can be defined as any act of dissent, insurrection, revolt, separatism, sling or uprising. It refers to violent resistance to a person who is the custodian of a public authority or who is entrusted with a public service mission, in the performance of his or her duties, for the enforcement of laws, orders of the public authority, decisions or warrants of justice. Individual or collective, organized or disorganized, passive or active, rebellion, in its forms, is as old as human societies. Indeed, violence, the common heritage of humanity, is the daily lot of human societies.
