Rebel, rebel

New!

From: The Environmentalist’s Dilemma

$4.10

After a year of accompanying V330ancouver’s Extinction Rebellion group, the author asks: is civil disobedience not only a moral choice, but also the most powerful way of shaping world politics? The author examines the tactics of successful and unsuccessful revolutions and offers proof that nonviolent resistance is the most effective way to replace a government, with just under twice the success rate of armed uprisings.
