Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. There is no easy way out of the spiraling morass of terror and brutality that confronts the world today. It is time now for the human race to hold still, to delve into its wells of collective wisdom, both ancient and modern.--Arundhati Roy The Power of Nonviolence, the first anthology of alternatives to war with a historical perspective, with an introduction by Howard Zinn about September 11 and the U.S. response to the terrorist attacks, presents the most salient and persuasive arguments for peace in the last 2,500 years of human history. Arranged chronologically, covering the major conflagrations in the world, The Power of Nonviolence is a compelling step forward in the study of pacifism, a timely anthology that fills a void for people looking for responses to crisis that are not based on guns or bombs. Included are some of the most original thinkers about peace and nonviolence-Buddha, Scott Nearing, Henry David Thoreau's "Civil Disobedience," Jane Addams, William Penn on "the end of war," Dorothy Day's position on "Pacifism," Erich Fromm, and Rajendra Prasad. Supplementing these classic voices are more recent advocates of peace: Albert Camus' "Neither Victims Nor Executioners," A. J. Muste's impressive "Getting Rid of War," Martin Luther King's influential "Declaration of Independence from the War in Vietnam," and Arundhati Roy's "War Is Peace," plus many others. …

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Don't you wonder: why is it necessary to declare me dead again and again? This is the question posed by Karl Marx in Howard Zinn's witty and insightful play on history. The premise of this one-man performance is that history's most famous, and oft-misrepresented, radical is resurrected after agitating with the authorities of the afterlife to clear his name. Through a bureaucratic error, however, Marx lands in modern-day Soho, New York, rather than his old stomping ground in London, to make his case.Here Howard Zinn, nationally known for his best-selling book A People's History of the United States, introduces us to the Karl Marx we never learned about in school--a most human of revolutionaries, driven by a deep passion for social justice. Along the way we meet Marx's wife Jenny, his children, the anarchist Mikhail Bakunin, and a host of other characters.Zinn's Marx in Soho rescues Marx's ideas and fighting spirit for a new generation and shows how, far from casting him to the grave, our troubled times need Marx more than ever.Howard Zinn is the one of the nation's leading historians and champions of social justice. In addition to A People's History of the United States, his many books include You Can't Be Neutral On a Moving Train, which is also the title of a 2004 documentary on Zinn's life, starring Matt Damon, Alice Walker, and others.Brian Jones is an African American teacher and activist based in New York City. He has performed Marx in Soho for audiences nationwide since 1999.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. "A shotgun blast of revisionism that aims to shatter all the comfortable myths of American political discourse." -- Los Angeles Times From the bestselling author of A People's History of the United States comes this selection of passionate, honest, and piercing essays looking at American political ideology. Howard Zinn brings to Passionate Declarations the same astringent style and provocative point of view that led more than a million people to buy his book A People's History of the United States. He directs his critique here to what he calls "American orthodoxies" --that set of beliefs guardians of our culture consider sacrosanct: justifications for war, cynicism about human nature and violence, pride in our economic system, certainty of our freedom of speech, romanticization of representative government, confidence in our system of justice. Those orthodoxies, he believes, have a chilling effect on our capacity to think independently and to become active citizens in the long struggle for peace and justice. In these landmark essays, Zinn confronts these foundational beliefs head-on: Just and Unjust War: A provocative re-examination of warfare itself, questioning whether any war--even the 'good war' against fascism--can truly be called just in the modern era. U.S. Foreign Policy: A sharp critique of Machiavellian 'realism' and the deceptions used to justify American military interventions around the globe. The American Class System: An unsparing look at economic justice in the United States, exposing the myth of 'rugged individualism' and the long history of government aid for the rich. Civil Disobedience: A powerful argument for why true democracy requires citizens to go beyond the law and engage in direct action, from the abolitionists to the anti-war movement.…
