a| Pathways to courageous resistance -- The process of becoming a courageous resister -- Ordinary persons doing extraordinary evil -- The individual as courageous resister to injustice -- Collective resistance to injustice : the special power of people working together -- Institutions and resisting injustice -- Ordinary people's extraordinary courage, impact and hope : conclusions from comparing cases of courageous resistance.

a| During times of grave injustice, some individuals, groups, and organizations courageously resist maltreatment of all people, regardless of& their backgrounds.& Courageous resisters have assisted others in such locales as Nazi-controlled Europe throughout the 1930s and 40s, Argentina during the "Dirty War" of the 1970s, Rwanda in the 1990s genocide and Iraqi prisons in recent years. Using these and other case studies, this book introduces readers to the broad spectrum of courageous resistance and provides a framework for analyzing the factors that motivate and sustain opposition to human rights violations.
