The correct option is B "civil disobedience"

Disobedience or civil disobedience is defined as the act of disregarding a norm for which compliance is required. The rule that should be obeyed is, in general, a legal norm, or in any case any rule that the group in power considers invested with authority in the sense that its transgression inevitably leads to punishment.
