Guidebook used in numerous pro-western revolutions around the world
Some of Sharp’s key points are:
-Develop a strategy for winning freedom and a vision of the society you want
-Overcome fear by small acts of resistance
-Use colours and symbols to demonstrate unity of resistance
-Learn from historical examples of the successes of non-violent movements
-Use non-violent “weapons”
-Identify the dictatorship’s pillars of support and develop a strategy for undermining each
-Use oppressive or brutal acts by the regime as a recruiting tool for your movement
-Isolate or remove from the movement people who use or advocate violence
