Anti-Coup

Bruce Jenkins, Gene Sharp

In a world where political democracy, human rights, and social justice are under constant threat, the rise of coups détat poses a serious concern. These sudden power grabs have increasingly disrupted established democratic systems, stifled movements toward broader democracy, and paved the way for brutal regimes. Coups are a primary pathway to new dictatorships and can lead to civil wars and international crises. This compelling book outlines an innovative anti-coup policy that emphasizes the defense of society through non-violent means. By focusing on two key principles—denying legitimacy to the coup leaders and fostering resistance through noncooperation and defiance—it offers a proactive strategy for citizens to reclaim their democracy. (Summary by Benjamin Gittins)
