measure of armed protection for their activities thus in the american civil rights movement of the 1960s the freedom ride of may 1961 having been opposed violently received armed protection for part of its hazardous journey 42 and the selma to montgomery march of march 1965 only succeeded in reaching montgomery alabama at the third attempt when it was protected by troops and federal agents 43 some campaigns of civil resistance may depend up the existence of militarily defended space a life saving example of an effective civil resistance enabling threatened people to reach a defended space occurred with the rescue of the danish jews in 1943 when thousands of jews were spirited out of german occupied denmark and across a narrow stretch of sea the sound to sweden 44 when leaders of even the most determinedly nonviolent movements have come to power in their countries they have generally accepted the continued existence of armed forces and other more or less conventional security arrangements for example in 1991 václav havel who had been a leading figure in civil resistance in communist czechoslovakia from the founding of charter 77 to the velvet revolution of 1989 in his new capacity as president of the czech and slovak federative republic paid tribute to the nato alliance 45 on 12 march 1999 the czech republic along with poland and hungary became a member of nato the term civil resistance merits and concerns edit gandhi in south africa in about 1906 1909 referring to his years there he later wrote i found that even civil disobedience failed to convey the full meaning of the struggle i therefore adopted the phrase civil resistance the term is not new gandhi used it in many of his writings 46 in 1935 he wrote i found that even civil disobedience failed to convey the full meaning of the struggle i therefore adopted the phrase civil resistance 47 it is a near synonym for nonviolent resistance civil disobedience people power and satyagraha while each of these terms has its uses and connotations civil resistance is one appropriate term to use in cases where the resistance has a civic quality relating to a society as a whole where the action involved is not necessarily disobedience but instead involves supporting the norms of a society against usurpers where the decision not to use violent methods is not based on a general philosophy of nonviolence but on a wide range of prudential ethical and legal considerations and where the technical and communications infrastructure of modern civil societies provides a means of organizing resistance 48 because of such considerations the term has been used in this century in many analyses in academic journals 49 what exactly are the advantages of the term civil resistance as distinct from its near synonyms nonviolent action and nonviolent resistance all these terms have merits and refer to largely the same phenomena indeed there is a long history in many languages of using a wide variety of terms to describe these phenomena the term civil resistance has been used increasingly for two main reasons it emphasises the positive civic goals widespread civil society involvement and civil as distinct from uncivil conduct rather than the negative avoidance of the use of violence it conveys more effectively perhaps than such terms as nonviolent resistance that a movement s avoidance of violence in pursuit of a particular cause is not necessarily tied to a general belief in nonviolence in all circumstances nor to a philosophy of gandhism but rather arises from the particular values and circumstances of the society concerned there have been concerns that the term civil resistance might on occasion be misused or at least stretched in a highly controversial way to encompass acts of violence thus arising from experience within the anti globalization movement one participant observer has seen new forms of civil resistance as being associated with a problematic departure from a previously more widely shared commitment to maintaining nonviolent discipline 50 because of these concerns those who have used the term civil resistance have tended to emphasise its nonviolent character and to use it in addition to and not in substitution of such terms as nonviolent resistance see also edit arab spring boycott civil disobedience civilian based defense colour
