This paper proposes a rupture of the dogmatic thought about civil disobedience. Nowadays, the economic state of exception has become the rule and the daily emergency of disaster established by capitalism can only be overcome, more than by a new nomos of the Earth, by the deactivation that only the radical refusal of the disobedience can constitute. Therefore, the civil disobedience, more than a mechanism of self-correction or even of self-integration of the constituted law, is a way to escape from the total submission created by the late capitalism, when the contemplative subjectivation guaranteed by the society of the spectacle is justified and maintained together with the legalized and institutionalized violence characteristic of the permanent economic state of exception.
