Definition
抗争 (kàng zhēng) means to actively resist or fight against injustice, oppression, or unfair treatment, often with a sense of determined struggle for a cause. It is more about a sustained, principled fight than 对抗 (direct confrontation) or 抵抗 (defensive resistance), and less about rebellion than 反抗 (revolt).
