Civil Disobedience - A Practical Guide

ByMalcolm Coxall

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
Traditional democratic structures are coming under increasing pressure. A combination of political corruption, voter apathy, and threats to the civil rights of ordinary citizens are driven by authoritarian tendencies not seen for decades. Much of the decision-making of government has been hijacked by big business and a whole generation have become increasingly cynical about the probity and ethics of the political elites. The shocking extent of public antagonism for their political leaders is matched only by record levels of voter apathy. This situation has created an unhealthy disconnection between citizen and authority. As in any evolving environment, this gap is being filled. In this case, the democratic deficit is being by-passed using various forms of civil rebellion. This book is a practical guide to using civil disobedience in nonviolent resistance. It describes over 300 methods of protest and how to plan and manage effective, targeted protest campaigns....a "must have" for every activist.
