Reseña del libro "Celebrating Peace in Hanoi and Other Essays (en Inglés)"
The fifty-one essays collected here--written between 1969 and 2026--reflect Elmer's unusual background and experience: peace activist, convicted felon, Harvard Law School graduate, international human rights reporter, and environmental lawyer. These essays take readers from his public draft resistance actions in 1969 and 1970 to his emotional 2013 participation in the international celebrations in Hanoi marking the fortieth anniversary of the Paris Agreement that ended the Vietnam War. The themes of nonviolent activism and of drawing connections between issues run throughout the book. Three essays combine consideration of 1950s pacifist protests against atomic weapons and twenty-first-century alarm about climate change. Three other essays consider unreported links between nuclear weapons and nuclear power. In many essays Elmer brings his legal training to bear on matters pertaining to US military strategy, the history of the American labor movement, and protests by both right- and left-wing agitators. Always the iconoclast, Elmer saves some of his harshest criticism for the violent or thoughtless actions of progressive activists. Read more
