Open resistance (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

defiance

'open resistance' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for defiance that I've seen before include "Hostile challenge" , "confrontation" , "Refusal to comply" , "show of rebellion" , "Challenging attitude" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Guardian and The Times.
