Can you show me one historical example where the assertion of a revolution, without (at least) the threat of force, was successful in securing the political objective?
(Just for a moment, let’s leave out the Exodus from Egypt. Somehow I don’t think God holds the same favor for us that He did for Israel.)
The Velvet Revolution?
Why? I don't think I made that claim. If you want an example, the New Deal is unquestionably a revolution accomplished without force. Progressives and philosophers and academics took over the machinery of government and used it to alter radically the relationship between the state and the individual.
