Excerpt

In Security Without Weapons: Rethinking Violence, Nonviolent Action, and Civilian Protection, M.S. Wallace conducts a thorough and intriguing examination of how nonviolent intervention can disrupt or prevent violent conflict. The book places particular empirical focus on the role discourse and moral frameworks play in the perpetration of violent conflict, compelling readers to rethink constructed categories of evil villains waging violence against innocent perpetrators.
