One of my only issues with this book was its treatment of the Weather Underground and the question of violence as a means of radical struggle. Andersen prefaces his discussion about violence with the thesis that "the fundamental question is what will work in practical terms". He then examines the tactics and actions of the Weathermen and the Weather Underground (battles with police, going underground, the botched military club bombing, and a series of clandestine bombings of other facilities). While I think his critique of the WUO is valuable for radicals today, he goes further and tends towards chiding them for what they did and seems to point out their actions as obviously wrongheaded. Monday morning quarterbacking weakens his arguments and does not help the author make his point.
Overall a solid book.… (plus d'informations)
