Intentional non-compliance with military conscriptionDraft evasion or conscription evasion (also referred to pejoratively as draft dodging) is avoiding a government-imposed obligation to serve in the military forces. Sometimes draft evasion involves refusing to comply with the military draft laws. Illegal draft evasion is said to have characterized every military conflict of the 20th and 21st centuries, in which at least one party of such conflict has enforced conscription.
