USA HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -A subject refuses, with little or no physical activity, to appropriately respond to the officer. resisters are often present during public demonstrations or other lawful protests. Passive resistance at such an event may include chaining oneself to an object or refusing upon verbal direction to stand up or move.

Detailed explanation-2: -Passive resistance is a form of nonviolent coercion: it seeks to compel the opponent to do something against his will. Satyagraha, in contrast, is not intentionally coercive: it seeks always to convert the opponent, to persuade him voluntarily and willingly to do what is right.

Detailed explanation-3: -Satyagraha, however, attempts to persuade without violence. This conception of the role of suffering in non-violent resistance makes the fundamental error of presuming that only two persons are involved in the process-the suffering resister and the opponent.

Detailed explanation-4: -Aurobindo Ghosh’s ‘Doctrine of passive resistance’ The main aim of employing passive resistance was to attain swaraj or freedom for the nation. He believed that it was our higher purpose to serve our country and free it from the fetters of foreigners. He called for self-sacrifice for the greater good of the nation.
