Summary/Abstract: The article provides an insight into the notion of civil disobedience and its constituents. The subject is presented with the significance of civil disobedience as a means of protecting the subjective rights in mind. In the context of opposing theoretical and legal paradigms: legal positivism and the natural law, an analysis of the legality of civil disobedience as a means for protection of rights stemming from these laws is conducted. Subsequently, having accounted for the views of Gustav Radbruch and Ronald Dworkin, a compromise view providing a solution to the paradox of protecting the legal system by its infringement in an act of civil disobedience, is outlined.
