 To the extent that there are nonviolent movements in places with ongoing violent conflicts is really amazing. One of the worst things that war does is just shut down the possibilities for civilian politics and civil society. So to the extent that these things do happen it's pretty important and pretty amazing. I think Central America provides a history lesson because the left throughout Latin America, this second wave of pink social democratic left, its base in many cases are the civilian components of insurgents, ecologies of movements, not just specific groups of movements, but this whole ecology of movements from the 60s and 70s, and the military component of that rebellion, if you view this in a broader historical frame, completely failed and justified, provided justification for the right wing to just repress the left completely. And it was the survival and resilience of civilian civil society that has really moved the ball down the field for progressive politics in Latin America. And if there's going to be progressive politics in the Middle East it's going to be the same process, I think, of these civil society movements maturing, surviving, weathering the repression, because they're facing a lot of repression now. Looking to the history of the civilian left in Latin America is rich with the lessons for people all over the world, because they have done a lot with very little under very difficult circumstances, and they continue to do that, and so that's probably something that's worth examining.
