People Power : The Building of a New European HomeThis volume describes how individuals, networks and groups in Eastern Europe worked patiently for 40 years to erode and finally overthrow their discredited governments in the "velvet revolutions" of 1989. They proved the effectiveness of social resistance and "people power", and the author considers the significance of their success for international politics. Part two consists of interviews with people who were directly involved in the everyday struggles for democracy, offering new information and personal insights into their motivations and actions.
