The frequent failure of military or armed interventions to protect civilians is well known. This edited collection provides a comprehensive account of a different, effective paradigm: unarmed civilian protection (UCP). The principles and methods of UCP have been used for many decades to protect both specific, threatened individuals as well as whole communities. Featuring contributions from around the world, this book brings together a wide range of UCP practices in order to examine their underlying theory and interrelated strategies. The book provides an important illustration of the contributions UCP can make, while also discussing its limitations and failures.
“With a focus on survivors of wars, this book provides evidence that non-violent action is effective and powerful in protecting lives and human rights even in the most dangerous security situations.” Mulanda Jimmy Juma, Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna
