Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
Hundreds of masked, black-clad anarchists adopted Gandhian tactics of nonviolent resistance during the IMF/World Bank protests in Washington, joining with other protesters in forming human chains blockading intersections, singing songs, playing musical instruments and greeting lines of heavily armed riot police with chants of "everything we do, we do because we love you." The news media, frustrated at the lack of images of violence and destruction, took vengeance in the only way they knew how: They declared the event a victory for the police.
