4 take a stand

отстаивать свою точку зрения, настаивать на своём

The more advanced elements, as among the New England factory workers, took a stand for the abolition of slavery. (W. Foster, ‘Outline History of the World Trade Union Movement’, ch. 6) — Более передовые элементы, например фабричные рабочие Новой Англии, стояли за отмену рабства.

If only you take a stand on the matter you will probably get your way. (EPI) — Если вы будете упорно отстаивать свою точку зрения, то, по всей вероятности, одержите верх.

In making my application I take my stand on the ruling given in the case of Brookes v. Stringer. (EPI) — Составляя заявление, я буду основываться на частном определении, вынесенном судом по делу Брукса против Стринджера.
