Abstract
The last decades have witnessed a substantial growth in the research on whistleblowing, and we have learned a great deal about the topic, particularly about its legal, moral, organizational, and work-related aspects. With this chapter, I would like to contribute to this body of knowledge by examining the political facet of whistleblowing. Here the main focus of attention will be on the political vision that the act of whistleblowing embodies and represents.
