Human violence in all its forms-physical, psychological and systemic-cultural-is perhaps the greatest obstacle to well-being in personal and community life. Nonviolence as "a practice that, whenever possible, seeks the well-being of the Other, by refusing to use violence to solve problems, and by acting according to loving kindness" is the best antidote to human violence. By drawing on the philosophy of nonviolence, the American pragmatist tradition and recent empirical research, Pragmatic Nonviolence demonstrates that, rather than being merely theoretical, nonviolence is a truly practical approach toward personal and community well-being. 410 0$aValue inquiry book series ;$vVolume 360. 606 $aNonviolence$xPhilosophy 615 0$aNonviolence$xPhilosophy. 676 $a303.61 700 $aFitz-Gibbon$b Andrew L.$f1951-$0790020 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910795630803321 996 $aPragmatic nonviolence$93826092 997 $aUNINA
