How can you advocate breaking some laws and obeying others


Problem: Carefully consider the following pronouncement made by Martin Luther King Jr. in his famous "Letter from Birmingham Jail" on 16 April 1963: One may well ask: "How can you advocate breaking some laws and obeying others?" The answer lies in the fact that there are two types of laws: just and unjust. I would be the first to advocate obeying just laws. One has not only a legal but a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws.1 Identify the legal philosophical approach that Martin Luther King Jr. advocates in his letter and explain how this approach originated and developed.
