"Achilles heel" of systems that are usually resorted to violence to hit the rebel movements, is to face the opposite Elements of strength. If the source of its strength is in the presence of a strong military and security apparatus, effectively, the point of weakness lies in its standoff other than this power of color in particular, the methods of "nonviolence."
"mirror Bahrain" opened the topic of "Non Violent Resistance," with Professor of Sociology Dr. Abdulhadi Khalaf, taking into account the movement of February 14 demands a model for analysis. The following Excerpts from the interview:
mirror Bahrain : I have sought in your book "civil resistance" to discuss the phenomenon of "mass action" and forms of struggle used as a tool for change. What this means for the resistance? It seems your interest in civil resistance, since the late eighties, early spring compared to the Arab peaceful revolutions that did not come before 2011? Hadi Behind: the resistance is an act of voluntary collective aims to change the data in the political and social reality-based, starting from denying the power of their ability to subdue people. And civil resistance Are those that eschew the use of violence to achieve its goals depends on the involvement of as many people as possible on a voluntary basis in the activities of the Assembly. Based on civil resistance on the intuitive Confirmed by extensive experience in human history. An axiom which says very briefly that the capacity of any authority to exercise its powers subject to acceptance of people of that authority and obedience to her either Legitimacy because of their conviction or fear of tyranny or in pursuit of riches.
As written about the "civil resistance" was a secondary output in a research project for several years contributed to It with other colleagues to study the situation of the Palestinian people in the diaspora and in the occupied territories. The aim of the book is to promote the idea of \u200b\u200bcivil resistance struggle as one of the options possible And effective. The synchronization of the book was published in 1986 with the increasing interest of the Palestinian leadership (and in particular the martyrs Obuamar and Abu Jihad) the ethics of civil resistance, including the legacy of Mahatma Gandhi and the Rev.

Yes, we want to learn how to roll his complicated love life, on the other hand one has the impression that reading does not require any intellectual effort czytadło. Too sharply? Maybe, but see for yourself.
Hero worst possible, phlegmatic suspended between women. Someone who wants to carried out his hand and was decided for him. I hate these guys, so in reality and in novels. The language is neither new, nor engaging, the dialogue is weak, and making nothing. Plus, cheap tricks, or writing about sexual initiation, mental problems and twisted women. I liked the idea, the title of a well-known song, worthy of praise, though undeveloped background revolt Student and youth, about which much has been written, but it is after all an endless topic. If only Murakami wrote a novel about the hero of any secondary importance, czytałoby me it even faster.
