Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Political violence can be considered either mala in se (intrinsically wrong) or mala prohibita (wrong because it is prohibited by law) depending on the context and circumstances in which it occurs. For example, violence against innocent civilians is always considered mala in se, whereas violence in self-defense or defense of a country may be considered mala prohibita. Therefore, it is arguable that political violence can fall under either category depending on the specific situation.
