Protest movements, with the vision of a creative society that works for all, need nonviolence. Violence can sometimes help movements to attain an immediate goal but it does not help to build the society of our dreams. Stellan Vinthagen, a peace activist and scholar of resistance studies, explains the dynamic of nonviolence by drawing on his experiences in a wide range of struggles as well as his scholarship. He also describes the influence of his parents and growing up in a family that admired M. K. Gandhi and the ideal of nonviolence.
