Produktbeschreibung
Swords and Plowshares is a book written by Ernest Crosby that explores the concept of non-violent resistance and the idea of using peaceful methods to achieve social change. The book is divided into two parts: the first part examines the history of non-violent resistance and its role in various political and social movements throughout history, while the second part focuses on practical strategies for implementing non-violent resistance in modern times.Crosby draws on a wide range of examples, from the teachings of Jesus and Gandhi to the Civil Rights Movement and the struggle against apartheid in South Africa, to illustrate the power and effectiveness of non-violent resistance. He argues that non-violent resistance is not only morally superior to violent methods, but also more effective in achieving lasting change.Throughout the book, Crosby emphasizes the importance of education and the need to build a strong and committed movement that is dedicated to non-violent resistance. He also offers practical advice on how to organize and mobilize people, how to communicate effectively with opponents, and how to deal with the inevitable setbacks and challenges that arise.Overall, Swords and Plowshares is a thought-provoking and inspiring book that challenges readers to rethink their assumptions about power, violence, and social change. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and theory of non-violent resistance, as well as those who are looking for practical strategies for creating a more just and peaceful world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
