Buy Challenge the Strong Wind and save 30%

Challenge the Strong Wind: Canada and East Timor 1975-99, by David Webster, is available for 30% discount. The book is a study of the foreign policy of one Western middle power and how it tried to influence other powers, including Australia and Indonesia, and was influenced by them. It also provides a close study of the Canadian solidarity movement from its origins in 1975 until the aftermath of 1999, locating Canadian activists in a gobal solidarity movement context.

"Historians of solidarity, human rights, and social movements face the challenge of narrating campaigns that may last years with few prospects or visible signs of success. Challenge the Strong Wind suggests the utility of what I would term a “social movement culture” approach focused on the biographies of key activists, occasional participants, and allied organizations over time." - Brad Simpson, University of Connecticut
