| Résumé : |
Where do the strategies, tactics, and lifestyles of contemporary activists come from? Movement for a New Society, a radical pacifist organization active in the 1970s and 1980s, pioneered forms of consensus decision making, communal living, direct action, and self-education now central to antiauthoritarian movements. Brimming with analysis, interviews, and archival documents, Oppose and Propose!: Lessons from Movement for a New Society recovers a missing link in recent radical history, while drawing out crucial lessons on leadership, movement building, counterculture, and prefigurative politics. |

Introduction. (1) History : Movement for a New Society and Contemporary Anarchism (Analysis, Action, Community, and Training). This first section is based on an article published in 2009 and 2010, after the author received a research grant from IAS to write about MNS. (2) Conversations : Nonviolence, Consensus and Leadership, An Interview (with George Lakey), Reflections by Former MNS Members (George Lakey, Betsy Raasch-Gilman, Nancy Brigham, Lynne Shivers, Robert A. Irwin) ; Q&A with former MNS Members (Lakey, Irwin, Raasch-Gilman, Nina Huizinga). This second section is partly made of transcripts of public meetings held in Philadelphia on the suggestion of G. Lakey, after the first section was published. (3) Documents : Why Nonviolence? (Bob Irwin and Gordon Faison, 1978) ; Organizational Handbook (1986). (4) Conclusion : MNS and the Current Moment. |

« One of the most significant dilemnas that MNS helps us think through is the relation between the adversarial and exemplary, the destructive and creative, the oppositional and propositional, moments of social struggle » (p. 157) |
