'Our Center has also collaborated with several international organizations that furnish
seminars and workshops in nonviolent tactics and that independently disseminate this
knowledge to activists, such as the Centre for Applied Nonviolent Action and Strategies
(CANVAS) in Belgrade, Nonviolence International in Washington, and the Center for
Victims of Torture. CANVAS is led by veterans of the movement that ousted Milosevic in
Serbia, and they will soon make universally downloadable their comprehensive
curriculum in strategic nonviolent action.'
'When my friends at CANVAS conduct a workshop on nonviolent struggle they ask
participants to prepare a power graph.'

Conference on Civil Resistance and Power Politics
St. Antony’s College, Oxford, 15-18 March 2007
Before I begin, I’d like to thank Sir Adam Roberts, Timothy Garton Ash, Tom Davies, my
colleague Berel Rodal, and the other organizers of this extraordinary conference. This
must be the first time such a diverse international group of distinguished scholars and
writers have gathered to extend our understanding of civil resistance, or what many of us
refer to as nonviolent conflict.
