I mentioned this guy in class: a Serb called Srdja Popovic has written a book called Blueprint for Revolution. I plan to read it and report back.
In the meantime, here are two articles about him:
- “Meet Srdja Popovic, the secret architect of global revolution”
- “How to start a revolution in five easy steps: humour and hobbits, but no guns”
And here’s a snippet: “Even under the direst conditions, it is still possible to get people to fight for a cause. So the first step in starting a revolution is believing that it can happen, wherever you are.”
