Sorry for the Inconvenience but This Is an Emergency: The Nonviolent Struggle for Our Planet's Future - Couverture rigide
Synopsis
As floods, fires and unprecedented heatwaves rage across the planet, more and more people are turning to nonviolent action to achieve political change. Can it work?
Doctor and aid worker Lynne Jones offers a compelling, ground-level account of the last five years of protests in the UK, exploring how and why ordinary citizens have resorted to extraordinary methods to confront the global climate and nature crises. Drawing on her experiences opposing nuclear weapons at Greenham Common airbase in the 1980s, and sharing her journey in movements like Extinction Rebellion today, she reflects on both public history and her personal story to answer key questions about nonviolent action in a world on the brink. Can we learn from the protest movements of the past? How do you communicate with those who disagree? What are the most effective forms of disruption in a Western democracy? Is property damage nonviolent? Is the law just? How important are direct interventions, boycotts and non-cooperation? What can we learn from indigenous activists in the Global South? A lifetime of activism has taught Jones that we all have more power than we realise. It's time to use that power for meaningful, transformative change--before it's too late.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
