In an age of economic downturns and austerity, when the “Occupy” movement has gone global, this addition to the Bold-Faced Wisdom series couldnt be timelier. Pathways to Nonviolent Resistance re-examines and fully annotates Mahatma Gandhis early writings, offering quick insight into his pragmatic doctrines for effecting peaceful political change and promoting civil rights. Here are Gandhis formative works, the foundation upon which he built his lifelong philosophy: speeches, letters, articles, and other documents drawn from roughly 1893-1923. Key passages are highlighted; “Food for Thought” questions spur readers to think about Gandhis relevance to todays world and their own lives.
