Gene Sharp, author and co-founder of The Albert Einstein Institution, explains how Nonviolence does work by ordinary people against unethical oppressive regimes by calling on an extraordinarily simple human trait — the ability to be stubborn.
Power is derived from the obedience and cooperation of people, and no oppressor can effectively rule citizens who refuse to support the system.
