The Power of the Powerless

The Power of the Powerless

WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY TIMOTHY SNYDER
Cowed by life under Communist Party rule, a greengrocer hangs a placard in their shop window: Workers of the world, unite! Is it a sign of the grocerâ€™s unerring ideology? Or a symbol of the lies we perform to protect ourselves?

Written in 1978, VÃ¡clav Havelâ€™s meditation on political dissent â€“ the rituals of its suppression, and the sparks that re-ignite it â€“ would prove the guiding manifesto for uniting Solidarity movements across the Soviet Union. A portrait of activism in the face of falsehood and intimidation, The Power of the Powerless remains a rousing call against the allure of apathy.
