Description

**From Dictatorship to Democracy, A Conceptual Framework for Liberation** is a book-length essay on the generic problem of how to destroy a dictatorship and to prevent the rise of a new one, using a nonviolent strategy. Now in its fourth edition, it was originally handed out by the **Albert Einstein Institution**, and although never actively promoted, to date it has been translated into over thirty languages. This book traveled as a photocopied pamphlet from Burma to Indonesia, Serbia and most recently Egypt, Tunisia and Syria, with dissent in China also reported. This how-to guide has inspired social uprisings the world over and includes 198 nonviolent "weapons" to shift the balance of power to the people, and topple repressive regimes.
