| Résumé : |
"When the great Quaker leader Rufus Jones wrote an introduction to the first edition of The Power of Nonviolence, he observed that 'here is a new kind of book… a fine blend of «what is» and «what ought to be»… There is much realism in this book as there is idealism.' That was in 1935. […] The years since 1935 have not only demonstrated how uncontrollable war is when its breaks out; they have schown also how right Richard Gregg was in preparing this perceptive study in the first place. The heroic, though unanticipated nonviolent resistance against the Nazis in Denmark and Norway, recounted in this new edition, and by smaller groups in France, the Netherlands, and in Germany itself, was such a demonstration. So has been the struggle in South Africa against unjust laws and our own experience in Montgomery. […]" Martin Luther King Jr. [Back of the book] |
