About “The Politics of Nonviolent Action”

This book by Gene Sharp begins with an examination of political power. It challenges the assumption that power derives from violence and can be controlled only by greater violence, arguing instead that power derives from sources in society which may be restricted or severed by withdrawal of cooperation by the populace.
