Nonkilling Global Political
Science, 2002
Dr. Glenn E. Paige includes the Doukhobors and
the Molokans amongst those groups exhibiting the characteristics of a
nonkilling society. Lev Tolstoy, Mahatma Gandhi and Marting
Luther King, Jr. are some of those rare masters who have advocated the
creation of a world without war based on the wisdom of nonkilling.
Below I list more encouragement for the nonkilling thesis. It takes
someone with deep experience like the Doukhobors to get to the heart of
this book. — Koozma J. Tarasoff (Updated Oct 2, 2007)

Nonkilling Global Political
Science is a perfect antidote for our
historic love affair with war. Genuine food for thought for a lot of
conforming pundits and editorial writers, not to mention teachers and
professors.
