The paper explores the implications of Joachim Gauck's criticism of civil disobedience, particularly in relation to the Occupy Wall Street movement and the Stuttgart protests against a controversial construction project. It highlights how Gauck's remarks reflect broader societal attitudes towards protest and the legitimacy of dissent in democratic contexts. By analyzing these events, the work contributes to the ongoing discourse on civil disobedience in Germany, emphasizing its significance in political theory and the history of ideas.
