Abstract: This study is a critique of the split between re search on civilian defense and nonviolent offensive action since both have different social actors as addressees - the entire nation in case of civilian defense, the lower classes in case of nonviolent re volution. This study, therefore, tries to reconstruct civilian defense as a specific strategy to defend historically achieved aims by the nonviolent move ment which has to act on the whole offensively, integrating the achievements and objectives of in ternational socialism. It tries to develop some ele ments of a theory of the international peace move ment labelled as civilism.
