It argues that anti-authoritarian revolutions like 1989's 'Autumn of the Nations' succeeded in large part due to cultural and political innovations springing from such small groups. The author explores the often ingenious ways in which these maladapted and liminal 'outliers' forged a cooperative and dialogic mindset among previously resentful and divided communities. Their strategies warrant closer scrutiny in the context of the ongoing 21st century revolution of dignity and efforts to (re)unite an ever more troubled and divided world.Routledge studies in modern history ;44.AuthoritarianismEurope, CentralHistory20th centuryRevolutionsEurope, CentralHistory20th centuryEurope, CentralHistory20th centuryAuthoritarianismHistoryRevolutionsHistory943.0009/048HIS000000HIS014000HIS032000bisacshWitoszek Nina1438060OCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910758483403321The Origins of Anti-Authoritarianism3599037UNINA
