A look at direct action beyond common protest tactics, providing an approach to positive, creative, and even long-term revolutionary activities.
Producer: Michael Caplan Uploaded by: George King
When many people think of direct action, they think of blockades, lockdowns, sabotage, and disruptions. Direct action is commonly seen as a set of protest tactics. This talk will reclaim a fuller notion of direct action as providing an approach to positive, creative, and even long-term revolutionary activities. In addition, this presentation will analyze the ethical underpinnings of direct action, the philosophical connections to anarchist understandings of human nature, and the implications for a uniquely anarchist understanding of nonviolence as well as a view of revolution as self-transformation.
This talk was presented at the third Renewing the Anarchist Tradition conference, at the Institute for Social Ecology, August 2001.
