englischIn her work, the author considers a problem that is important in every respect. The question of whether there is a right to resist a human rights abusive power is one of the most recent in international politics.

The first chapter of the work presents an analysis of the doctrines of resistance in the work of great modern philosophers. In the second chapter, the author examines all possible foundations of a right of resistance in international law. An important role is played by the human rights regime and the prohibition of the use of force, which are subjected to a philosophical analysis. As a result, the right to resist exists as a general principle of public international law. In the third chapter, the author substantiates this right within the framework of her own, very limited theory of resistance and deals with the problem of ethical legitimacy of a martial right of resistance.
