Written shortly after the formation of Charter 77, the essays in this collection are among the most original and compelling pieces of political writing to have emerged from central and Eastern Europe during the whole of the post-war period. Václav Havel's essay provides the title for the book. It was read by all the contributors who in turn responded to the many questions which Havel raises about the potential power of the powerless.TheRoutledge revivals.Civil rightsEurope, EasternHuman rightsEurope, EasternEurope, EasternPolitics and government1945-1989Electronic books.Civil rightsHuman rights323.40947Havel Vaclav.474015Keane John1949-246783Lukes Steven156548FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910454919503321The Power of the powerless1980109UNINA
