"With clarity and insight,
Harn Gan
has provided an engaging, illuminating
and original perspective on the problems of violence and nonviolence. A
valuable contribution to understanding these issues, readily accessible to a
general audience." —Robert
L
Holmes, University of Rochester
"This is the book that teachers of nonviolence have been waiting for! Barry
Gan exposes five cultural myths with regard to violence and demonstrates
clearly the importance of intention, not merely action, with regard to vio¬
lence. He argues his case with the precision of a careful philosopher and the
pace of a good storyteller. Can's is an utterly honest account and is never
merely theoretical. Perhaps the most creative aspect of this book is his
explication of the difference between seleaive nonviolence (nonviolence as
a political strategy) and comprehensive nonviolence (nonviolence as a way
of life). Barry Can makes an eloquent case for comprehensive nonviolence.
This will be an important book for use in classes looking at violence and non¬
violence in philosophy, sociology, psychology, history; and in general education/
—Andrew Fitz-Gibbon, SUNN Cortland
Violence and Nonviolence: An introduction critiques five dominant societal
views about violence and nonviolence. Citing scientific studies as well as
anecdotal evidence and news reports, esteemed scholar and editor Barry
L
Can shows students that these widely adopted and violent views are largely
mistaken and require a fundamental rethinking and adjustment. By synthe¬
sizing new research with old philosophies. Can introduces students to two
alternative paradigms of nonviolence through which we
слп
begin to build
a more peaceful world.
BARRY L. GAN is professor of philosophy and director of the Center
for Nonviolence at St. Bonaventure University.
