Place reservation for The power of nonviolent resistance : selected writings2019 marks the 150th anniversary of Mohandas Karamchand (Mahatma) Gandhi's birth, and Penguin Classics presents a short but comprehensive selection of text by Gandhi that speaks to non-violent civil disobedience and activism. In excerpts drawn from his books, letters, and essays -including from 'Hind Swaraj', 'Satyagraha in South Africa', 'Yeravda Mandir', 'Ashram Observances in Action', his readings of Thoreau and Tolstoy, and his essays on the life of Socrates - the reader observes the power and eloquence in which Gandhi expressed his views on non-violent resistance, which have inspired activists from the U.S. Civil Rights movement and around the world. 'The Power of Nonviolent Resistance' includes a new introduction and suggestions for further exploration by renowned Gandhi scholar Tridip Suhrud, which gives context to the time of Gandhi's writings while placing them firmly into the present-day political climate.
