Hola a todas:<br>
<br>
He recibido este mensaje de Cynthia, envía un capitulo sobre MdN destinado
a formar parte de un libro "Resistencia no armada y Solidaridad Global".
<br>
Estaría bien que las que entienden el inglés lo lean para hacer comentarios;
éstos serán bienvenidos hasta el 18 de junio.<br>
También se puede añadir una bibliografia sobre el tema; de momento solo hay
2 cosas, seguro que podríamos añadir algo en nuestro idioma por ejemplo.<br>
Ánimo, un abrazo,<br>
Yolanda<br>

<pre>Dear Lieve, Yolanda and Edith,
Here I have a difficult and potentially time-consuming task for you
three and Marianita (! hope I may leave it to Edith to write to her
in French?). First and foremost I apologize for loading you with this
work. Please give me your advice on how to handle it. I attach my
draft chapter for the WRI book. Ideally I suppose, it should go to
the four language lists to invite comment, but it is a lot to
translate and you might feel it is not worthwhile to do this except
in English. On the other hand, we could ask Howard Clark if the
Spanish, French and Italian versions of the chapter as finally
submitted, might be put to good use by publication by WiB groups
locally (should they wish it) in feminist or antiwar journals and
papers in their languages. Obviously this would have to be at an
appropriate time, and with credit to the book, but could be helpful
perhaps in increasing its publicity and sales. So, friends, please
tell me what you would like and propose to do about this. Below, in
quote marks, I give you more information, in a form that could become
my letter to accompany the chapter out to the email lists...
Hugs, Cynthia.
.......
"You will remember that I was invited by Howard Clark, the
international chair person of War Resisters International, to
contribute a chapter on WiB to a book he is editing on "Unarmed
Resistance and Global Solidarity". We checked out via the e-lists
that there was no objection to my drafting such a contribution, and I
received several messages of strong endorsement. Now I attach my
draft chapter, which ought to be transmitted in finished form to the
editor by the end of June. We thus have one month to discuss it collectively.
Certain points I would like to make:
The chapter, while it is intended to serve as a general introduction
to and description of WiB, is designed explicitly to focus on the
question of "solidarity".
Secondly, it is supposed to be no more than 2500 in length. It is
currently 2677. So any changes need to lose as many words as they add.
Third, I would appreciate it if any you could send me information on
other substantial articles , books and theses that may exist on WiB,
to add to "further reading". I would need author, date, title, and
country and name of publisher in each case.
Please, those of you who are interested, could you read the proposed
article and let me know (a) of any factual errors and (b) instances
where your interpretation may differ from mine. It may be difficult
to reach consensus, but I promise to take careful account of your
thoughts in finalizing the piece. The last date I can usefully
receive your advice is June 18.
Best wishes, and thanks in anticipation, Cynthia"
