Peter Ackerman and Jack DuVall depict how nonviolent strategies--using tactics such as protests, strikes and boycotts--separate oppressors from their means of control. They tell inside stories--how Danes outmaneuvered the Nazis, Solidarity defeated Polish communism, and mass action removed a Chilean autocrat--and also how nonviolent power is changing the world today.

The causes pursued and the methods used in such conflicts are not only compatible with the goal of quenching the fires of political violence. The success of this alternative as a force for political change is that goal’s prerequisite.

Between 1900 and 2006, more than 100 such movements appeared, and more than half were successful in dissolving oppression or achieving people’s rights. Movements self-organize to summon mass participation, develop cognitive unity in the midst of dissension, and build resilient force on the content of shared beliefs. Some movements may even be a new venue for consciousness that “grows to something of great constancy” as Shakespeare said about “minds transfigured so together.”
