今天我會提到一種現象，
00:19
which can and is actually changing the world,
2
7368
2926
一種能夠亦已經在改變世界的現象，
00:22
and whose name is people power.
3
10294
1990
這個現象就是人民的力量。
00:24
I'll start with the anecdote, or for those of you
4
12284
2752
讓我先來與你們分享一段故事，
00:27
who are Monty Python lovers, a Monty Python type of sketch.

如果你們是蒙提·派森（英國喜劇團體）的愛好者的話，
這是一個蒙提·派森式的小品。
這是一個蒙提·派森式的小品。
00:30
Here it is. It is December 15, 2010.
6
18612

故事是這樣的。2010年12月15日
00:34
Somebody gives you a bet. You will look at a crystal ball
7
22612
3272
有人和你打賭。你會在水晶球裡，
00:37
and you will see the future. The future will be accurate.
8
25884
2744
看到未來，而且是準確的未來。
00:40
But you need to share it with the world. Okay?
9
28628
2696
但是你必須把你所看到的公諸於眾。你願意嗎？
00:43
Curiosity killed the cat. You take the bet.
10
31324
2618
好奇心會殺死一隻貓。你接受了挑戰。
00:45
You look at the crystal ball. One hour later,
11
33942
2430
你往水晶球裡看了進去。一個小時後，
00:48
you are sitting in a building on the national TV
12
36372
2683
你坐在一棟全國性電視台的大樓裡，
00:51
in a talkshow, and you tell the story.
13
39055
2645
在脱口秀中接受訪問，講述你在水晶球裡看到的事情。
00:53
"Before the end of 2011, Ben Ali and Mubarak
14
41700
4842
“2011年結束之前，本·阿里(突尼西亞前總統)、
穆巴拉克(埃及前總理)、
穆巴拉克(埃及前總理)、
00:58
and Gaddafi will be down and prosecuted.
15
46542
3762
和格達費(利比亞前總理) 都會垮台並被起訴。
01:02
Saleh of Yemen and Assad of Syria
16
50304
2892
葉門的薩利赫和敘利亞的阿薩德
01:05
would be either challenged or already on their knees.
17
53196
3288
會受到挑戰或屈服於壓力。
01:08
Osama bin Laden will be dead,
18
56484
2208
奧薩瑪賓拉登會死亡，
01:10
and Ratko Mladic will be in the Hague."
19
58692
2656
然後拉特科·姆拉迪奇會在荷蘭哈牙受審 (國際戰爭罪)“。
01:13
Now, the anchor watches you with a strange gaze on his face,
20
61348
3522
現在，節目主持人用奇怪的眼神看著你，
01:16
and then on the top of it you add,
21
64870
1791
接著，你繼續把故事說下去，
01:18
"And thousands of the young people from Athens, Madrid
22
66661
2705
" 然後在雅典、馬德里還有紐約，
01:21
and New York will demonstrate for social justice,
23
69366
3134
成千上萬的年輕人為了社會的公理而走上街頭，
01:24
claiming that they are inspired with Arabs."
24
72500
2856
宣稱他們是受到了阿拉伯世界的鼓舞。"
01:27
Next thing you know, two guys in white appear.
25
75356
3129
接下來你所能記得的，是兩個穿著白色衣服的人出現。
01:30
They give you the strange t-shirt,
26
78485
2277
他們給你一件奇怪的T恤衫，
01:32
take you to the nearest mental institution.
27
80762
1939
把你帶到最近的一間心理治療中心。
01:34
So I would like to speak a little bit about the phenomenon
28
82701
2933
所以我想講的這個現象，
01:37
which is behind what already seems to be the very bad year
29
85634
3784
對於那些壞蛋來說這似乎是個走衰運的一年，
01:41
for bad guys, and this phenomenon is called people power.
30
89418
4707
這個現象就是人民的力量。
01:46
Well, people power has been there for a while.
31
94125
2780
事實上，人民的力量已經存在好一陣子了。
01:48
It helped Gandhi kick the Brits from India.
32
96905
2744
它幫助了甘地把英國人趕出印度。
01:51
It helped Martin Luther King win a historic racial struggle.
33
99649
3913
它幫助馬丁·路德·金恩贏了一場歷史悠久的種族抗爭。
01:55
It helped local Lech Walesa to kick out
34
103562
3374
它幫助了萊赫·華勒沙
01:58
one million Soviet troops from Poland
35
106936
2989
將蘇聯的百萬大軍逐出波蘭，
02:01
and beginning the end of the Soviet Union as we know it.
36
109925
2833
並引發了我們所知的蘇聯解體。
02:04
So what's new in it? What seems to be very new,
37
112758
3698
這裡頭有甚麼我們不知道的呢?
02:08
which is the idea I would like to share with you today,
38
116456
2581
我今天要和各位分享的是一個嶄新的想法，
02:11
that there is a set of rules and skills which can be learned
39
119037
4085
有一套可以學習並傳授的規則和技巧
02:15
and taught in order to perform successful nonviolent struggle.
40
123122
4484
可以用來進行非暴力式的抗爭。
02:19
If this is true, we can help these movements.
41
127606
3520
如果這是真的的話，我們可以對這些運動提供幫助。
02:23
Well, first one, analytic skills.
42
131126
3008
首先，分析技能。
02:26
I'll try where it all started in the Middle East,
43
134134
2875
這一切都是從中東開始的，
02:29
and for so many years we were living with completely the wrong
44
137009
3784
這麼多年以來，我們平常對於中東的認知
02:32
perception of the Middle East.
45
140793
2413
有著全然的錯誤。
02:35
It was looking like the frozen region, literally a refrigerator,
46
143206
3417
那裏從前看起來像是一塊不會改變的地區，
打個比方，就像是冰箱一樣，
打個比方，就像是冰箱一樣，
02:38
and there are only two types of meals there:
47
146623
2351
然而這冰箱裡只有兩種食物 :
02:40
steak, which stands for a Mubarak, Ben Ali-type of
48
148974
3263
第一種是牛排，代表的是 穆巴拉克 和 本·阿里 這類
02:44
military police dictatorship, or a potato,
49
152237
4078
軍事政權獨裁者 ; 第二種是馬鈴薯，
02:48
which stands for Tehran types of theocracies.
50
156315
2739
代表的是伊朗德黑蘭這類的神權政治。
02:51
And everybody was amazed when the refrigerator opened
51
159054
2968
當這個冰箱被打開來的時候，
每個人都為此感到驚訝，
每個人都為此感到驚訝，
02:54
and millions of young, mainly secular people step out
52
162022
3632
接著數百萬來自平民階層的年輕人，
為了做出改變而站了出來
為了做出改變而站了出來
02:57
to do the change. Guess what? They didn't watch the demographics.
53
165654
4796
各位知道嗎? 他們忽略了人口統計的相關數據。
03:02
What is the average age of Egyptians? 24.
54
170450
2580
埃及人的平均年齡是多少? 24歲
03:05
How long was Mubarak in power? 31.
55
173030
2472
穆巴拉克在位時間有多久? 31年
03:07
So this system: just obsolete. They expired,
56
175502
3768
這代表這是一個老舊的政權。它們已經過期了。
03:11
and young people of the Arab World have awakened
57
179270
2513
然而阿拉伯世界的年輕人在一夜之間覺醒了，
03:13
one morning and understood that power lies in their hands.
58
181783
4439
並了解到實質的力量其實掌握在他們手中。
03:18
The rest is the year in front of us. And guess what?
59
186222
2984
接下來的事正在我們眼前發生中。接著發生了甚麼事?
03:21
The same Generation Epsilon with their rules,
60
189206
2706
同一群 Epsilon 世代的人，擁有他們自己的規則，
(Generation Epsilon 阿拉伯世界 18~29 歲反抗獨裁政權的人)
(Generation Epsilon 阿拉伯世界 18~29 歲反抗獨裁政權的人)
03:23
with their tools, with their games and with their language,
61
191912
2759
他們自己的工具，他們自己的遊戲和語言，
03:26
which sounds a little bit strange to me. I am 38 now.
62
194671
3885
這對已經38歲的我來說有一點的新奇。
03:30
And can you look at the age of the people on the streets of Europe?
63
198556
3916
你可以去看看那些在歐洲上街頭的群眾的年齡嗎?
03:34
It seems that Generation Epsilon is coming.
64
202472
4107
看起來 Epsilon 世代已經來臨了。
03:38
Now let me set another example.
65
206579
3130
現在讓我再給大家另一個例子。
03:41
I'm meeting different people throughout the world,
66
209709
2038
我現在正在和來自世界各地的人會面，
03:43
and they are, you know, academics and professors
67
211747
2625
他們是那些，你知道的，學術人士和教授
03:46
and doctors, and they will always talk conditions.
68
214372
2760
還有醫生們，他們總是說各式各樣的環境限制
03:49
They will say, "People power will work only if the regime is not too oppressive."
69
217132
4000
他們會說 " 人民的力量只有在政權沒那麼嚴厲時才會發揮功效 "
03:53
They will say, "People power will work if the annual income
70
221132
3037
他們會說 " 人民的力量只有在
03:56
of the country is between X and Z."
71
224169
2707
國家的年收入在逆差的時候才會發生"
03:58
They will say, "People power will work only if there is a foreign pressure."
72
226876
3600
他們會說 " 人民的力量只有在有外國力量介入時才會出現 "
04:02
They will say, "People power will work only if there is no oil."
73
230476
2936
他們會說 " 人民的力量只有在石油短缺時才有用 "
04:05
And, I mean, there is a set of conditions.
74
233412
1966
我的意思是，他們有一大堆的限制。
04:07
Well, the news here is that your skills [that you] bring in the conflict
75
235378
4960
我要給你們的消息是，你們在抗爭中的使用的技能
04:12
seem to be more important than the conditions,
76
240338
3052
似乎比這些限制條件更為重要，
04:15
namely skills of unity, planning,
77
243390
2646
換句話說，技能像是團結、規劃
04:18
and maintaining nonviolent discipline.
78
246036
1907
和維持非暴力的紀律。
04:19
Let me give you the example.
79
247943
1627
讓我給你們一些範例。
04:21
I am coming from a country called Serbia.
80
249570
1901
我來自塞爾維亞。
04:23
It took us 10 years to unite 18 opposition party leaders,
81
251471
4748
在我們國家，我們花了 10 年的時間讓
18 個擁有各自雄心壯志的黨派領袖結合起來，
18 個擁有各自雄心壯志的黨派領袖結合起來，
04:28
with their big egos, behind one single candidate
82
256219
3047
讓他們同時站在同一個候選人的背後，
04:31
against Balkan dictator Slobodan Milosevic.
83
259266
2738
來對抗巴爾幹的獨裁者 Slobodan Milosevic。
04:34
Guess what? That was the day of his defeat.
84
262004
2688
接著呢? 那一天就是他被擊倒的日子。
04:36
You look at the Egyptians, they fire on Tahrir Square,
85
264692
2816
你們看看埃及人們，他們在解放廣場上放火，
04:39
they get rid of their individual symbols.
86
267508
2304
他們擺脫個體的象徵
04:41
They appear on the street only with the flag of Egypt.
87
269812
3072
他們上街時只帶著埃及的國旗。
04:44
I will give you a counter-example.
88
272884
2215
我在給你們一個相反的例子。
04:47
You see nine presidential candidates running against Lukashenko.
89
275099
3497
在白俄羅斯，九個候選人同時去和 Lukashenko 做競爭。
04:50
You will know the outcome.
90
278596
1403
結果你們應該猜到了。
04:51
So unity is a big thing, and this can be achieved.
91
279999
3477
所以，團結是一件很重要的事，而且是一件可以達成的事。
04:55
Same with planning. Somebody has lied to you
92
283476
2440
規劃也是一樣。有人對你撒謊說過關於
04:57
about the successful and spontaneous nonviolent revolution?
93
285916
3867
成功且自發的非暴力革命嗎?
05:01
That thing doesn't exist in the world.
94
289783
2261
這種事壓根不存在這世上。
05:04
Whenever you see young people in front of the road
95
292044
2755
每當你看到有年輕人在隊伍最前面，
05:06
trying to fraternize with the police or military,
96
294799
2485
試圖對軍警釋出善意，
05:09
somebody was thinking about it before.
97
297284
2512
這一定是有人深思熟慮所導致的行為。
05:11
Now, at the end, nonviolent discipline,
98
299796
2360
最後一個，非暴力的紀律，
05:14
and this is probably the game-changer.
99
302156
2211
而這可能是改變整場遊戲的關鍵。
05:16
If you maintain nonviolent discipline, you will exclusively win.
100
304367
4205
如果你能夠維持非暴力的紀律，
你就會獲得完全的勝利。
你就會獲得完全的勝利。
05:20
You have 100,000 people in a nonviolent march,
101
308572
2848
假熱你有十萬個人正在進行非暴力性的遊行
05:23
and one idiot or agent provocateur is throwing stones,
102
311420
2650
然後有個白癡或是敵方的臥底扔出了一個石頭，
05:26
guess what takes all the cameras? That one guy.
103
314070
2902
猜猜看所有媒體的焦點會跑到哪?
就只會在那一個人身上。
就只會在那一個人身上。
05:28
One single act of violence can literally
104
316972
2179
一個小小的暴力行為
05:31
destroy your movement.
105
319151
2461
可以破壞掉一整個運動。
05:33
Now let me move to another place.
106
321612
2656
現在把場景轉換一下。
05:36
It's selection of strategies and tactics.
107
324268
1579
這是戰術和戰略的抉擇。
05:37
There are certain rules in nonviolent struggle you may follow.
108
325847
3924
非暴力性的抗爭有既有的規則你應該去遵守。
05:41
First, you start small.
109
329771
1419
首先，先從簡單的開手。
05:43
Second, you pick the battles you can win.
110
331190
3154
第二步，你挑選一個你可以贏的戰鬥。
05:46
It's only 200 of us in this room.
111
334344
2754
我們在這個房間只有200人。
05:49
We won't call for the March of Millions.
112
337098
2075
我們不會號稱這是個百萬人的大遊行。
05:51
But what if we organize spraying graffiti throughout the night
113
339173
3289
但如果我們有組織性的在夜晚去做街頭塗鴉
05:54
all over Krakow city? The city will know.
114
342462
3030
而目標是整個 Krakow city (波蘭第二大城) 呢?
整個城市都會收到訊息。
整個城市都會收到訊息。
05:57
So we pick the tactics which accommodates to the event,
115
345492
3304
所以我們必須挑選適合這樣事件的戰略，
06:00
especially this thing we call the small tactics of dispersion.
116
348796
4106
特別是這種我們稱為分散兵力的小型戰略。
06:04
They're very useful in a violent oppression.
117
352902
3790
它們在暴力鎮壓中非常有用。
06:08
We are actually witnessing the picture
118
356692
1978
事實上我們正在目睹一個
06:10
of one of the best tactics ever used.
119
358670
2446
有史以來最好的戰略之一。
06:13
It was on Tahrir Square, where the international community
120
361116
3284
在埃及解放廣場上，國際性團體
06:16
was constantly frightened that the Islamists
121
364400
3516
一直都很害怕伊斯蘭會主導這場革命
06:19
will overtake the revolution. Well, they've organized
122
367916
2405
事實上，它們組織了基督徒
06:22
Christians protecting Muslims, who are there praying,
123
370321
3131
去保護那些正在祈禱的穆斯林，
06:25
Coptic wedding cheered by thousands of Muslims.
124
373452
2720
去保護那些正在為科普特婚禮歡呼的穆斯林。
06:28
The world has just changed the picture,
125
376172
1990
世界的樣貌正在改變，
06:30
but somebody was thinking about this previously.
126
378162
3018
而這是因為有人在事前有縝密的規劃。
06:33
So there are so many things you can do instead of
127
381180
2320
所以，有很多的方法可以當作替代方案
06:35
getting into one place, shouting and
128
383500
3295
讓你不用跑到某個地方，對著維安人員
06:38
showing off in front of the security forces.
129
386795
3452
大吼或是做些引人注目的動作。
06:42
Now there is also another very important dynamic,
130
390247
3693
這裡還有另一種非常重要的動能，
06:45
and this is a dynamic normally analytics don't see.
131
393940
3133
而這種動能是一般的分析看不見的。
06:49
This is dynamics between fear and apathy on one side
132
397073
3502
這是一個介於恐懼、冷漠
06:52
and enthusiasm and humor on another side.
133
400575
3093
和熱情、幽默之間的一種動能
06:55
So it works like in a video game.
134
403668
2008
他運作的方式和電玩遊戲很像。
06:57
You have a fear high, you have status quo.
135
405676
2272
如果你的恐懼值較高的話，
你會維持現狀不動。
你會維持現狀不動。
06:59
You have enthusiasm higher, you see fear starting to melt.
136
407948
4006
如果你的熱情值開始攀高，
你的恐懼會開始消散。
你的恐懼會開始消散。
07:03
Day two, you see people running towards police

第二天，人群會開始向警察跑過去
07:06
instead of from the police.
138
414364
2294
而不是從警察那裏跑開。
07:08
In Egypt, you can tell that something is happening there.
139
416658
3006
在埃及，你可以看到有些事情正在發生中
07:11
And then it's about humor. Humor is such a powerful
140
419664
3807
接下來是關於幽默。幽默是一個強大的關鍵
07:15
game-changer, and of course it was very big in Poland.
141
423471
2435
它可以改變整個局勢，
當然它對於波蘭來說是非常的重要。
當然它對於波蘭來說是非常的重要。
07:17
And you know, we were just a small group of crazy students
142
425906
3026
你們知道嗎，當我們做出這策劃時，
07:20
in Serbia when we made this big skit.
143
428932
3192
我們只是在塞爾維亞的一小群瘋瘋癲癲的學生。
07:24
We put the big petrol barrel with a
144
432124
3081
我們在大型的汽油桶上面
07:27
portrait picture of Mr. President on it
145
435205
2760
放了總統先生的肖像，
07:29
in the middle of the Main Street. There was a hole on the top
146
437965
2449
並且將它放在主要幹道的中央。
桶子的上面有一個洞，
桶子的上面有一個洞，
07:32
so you could literally come, put a coin in,
147
440414
2998
你可以把銅板丟進去，
07:35
get a baseball bat, and pow, hit his face.
148
443412
3440
然後拿起球棒往他的臉尻下去，
07:38
Sounds loud. And within the minutes, we were sitting
149
446852
3430
然後發出巨大的聲響。當時我們坐在附近的咖啡廳，
07:42
in a nearby cafe having coffee, and there was
150
450282
2498
喝著咖啡，並且在幾分鐘之內，
07:44
a queue of people waiting to do this lovely thing.
151
452780
3648
聚集了一排的人等著要來試試這項運動。
07:48
Well, that's just the beginning of the show.
152
456428
2312
而這只是整場秀的開幕。
07:50
The real show starts when the police appears.
153
458740
2464
真正的好戲從警察的出現開始。
07:53
What will they do? Arrest us? We are nowhere to be seen.
154
461204
3736
他們要怎麼做? 逮捕我們?
我們在他們看不見的地方。
我們在他們看不見的地方。
07:56
We are three blocks away observing it from our espresso bar.
155
464940
3704
我們在三個街區之外的咖啡吧檯觀察著一切。
08:00
Arrest the shoppers with kids? Doesn't make sense.
156
468644
3328
逮捕那些帶著小孩的消費者?
這一點道理都沒有。
這一點道理都沒有。
08:03
Of course, you could bet they have done the most stupid thing:
157
471972
2792
當然，你可以打賭他們會做出最笨的決定:
08:06
They arrested the barrel. And now the picture
158
474764
2608
它們逮捕了汽油桶。而如今，
08:09
of the smashed face on the barrel with the policeman
159
477372
2712
這個上面有個被打爛的臉的汽油桶
08:12
dragging them to the police car, that was the best day
160
480084
3080
被警察拖上警車。那一天
08:15
for the photographers from newspapers that they ever will have.
161
483164
3168
對報社的攝影師來說
是再也不會有更好的日子。
是再也不會有更好的日子。
08:18
So, I mean, these are the things you can do,
162
486332
2616
所以我的意思是，這些是你可以做的事，
08:20
and you can always use the humor.
163
488948
1271
而你永遠可以善用你的幽默。
08:22
There is also one big thing about the humor: It really hurts,
164
490219
3777
對幽默來說只有一件重要的事 :
它們的殺傷力真的很大，
它們的殺傷力真的很大，
08:25
because these guys really are taking themselves too seriously.
165
493996
4112
因為那些人總是把他們自己看得太重。
08:30
When you start to mock them, it hurts.
166
498108
2371
當你開始取笑他們時, 他們會因此受傷。
08:32
Now, everybody is talking about His Majesty, the Internet,
167
500479
4173
現在每個人都在討論他們的神主牌，。網際網路。
08:36
and it is also a very useful skill, but don't rush
168
504652
3984
這也是一項很有用個技能，
但不要急著把標籤貼上
但不要急著把標籤貼上
08:40
to label things like Facebook Revolution, Twitter Revolution.
169
508636
3792
像是Facebook 革命 , Twitter革命。
08:44
Don't mix tools with the substance.
170
512428
3162
不要把工具和實質意義作了混淆。
08:47
It is true that the Internet and new media are very useful
171
515590
3494
實際上，網際網路和新興媒體真的非常有用，
08:51
in making things faster and cheaper.
172
519084
2866
它讓事情做起來更快更便宜。
08:53
They make it also a bit safer for the participants
173
521950
2610
它也讓那些參與者能夠更安全，
08:56
because they give the part of anonymity.
174
524560
2676
因為它們提供了隱匿性。
08:59
We are watching the great example of something else the Internet can do.
175
527236
3318
我們正在看的是一個很棒的範例，
他展示出網路的另一項功能。
他展示出網路的另一項功能。
09:02
It can put the price tag of state-sponsored violence over nonviolent protesters.
176
530554
5129
他可以將那些因為被領公費的暴行者
弄受傷的非暴力抗爭者貼上標籤
弄受傷的非暴力抗爭者貼上標籤

09:12
This is the mutilated face of the guy who was beaten by the police.
179
540746
3702
這是那個被警察揍的年輕人分解的臉。
09:16
This is how he became the public, and this is what probably
180
544448
3018
這就是他如何變成公眾議題，
09:19
became the straw which broke the camel's back.
181
547466
3150
而這也可能是壓垮駱駝的最後一根稻草。
09:22
But here is also the bad news.
182
550616
1760
但這同時也有壞消息。
09:24
The nonviolent struggle is won in the real world,
183
552376
2613
非暴力型抗爭在現實世界中獲得了勝利，
09:26
in the streets. You will never change your society
184
554989
3683
就在外頭的街道上。但你絕不能夠改變你的社會
09:30
towards democracy or economics
185
558672
3184
轉向民主或是改變經濟
09:33
if you sit down and click.
186
561856
1729
假如你只是坐在電腦前面按讚而已。
09:35
There are risks to be taken and there are living people
187
563585
2498
有的風險是要去承擔，而在外頭有真正的活人
09:38
who are winning the struggle.
188
566083
2348
他們正在贏得這場抗爭。
09:40
Well, million dollar question: What will happen in the Arab World?
189
568431
4035
百萬獎金大猜謎 : 阿拉伯世界會發生什麼事呢?
09:44
And though young people from the Arab World
190
572466
2206
雖然阿拉伯世界的年輕人
09:46
were pretty successful in bringing down three dictators,
191
574672
2954
很成功的把三位獨裁者拉下台了，
09:49
shaking the region, kind of persuading clever kings
192
577626
4511
撼動他們的政權，也因此動搖了
09:54
from Jordan and Morocco doing substantial reforms,
193
582137
2904
識時務的約旦和摩洛哥國王做了實質性的政治重組，
09:57
it is yet to be seen what will be the outcome,
194
585041
4447
但最後的結果還有待觀察，
10:01
whether the Egyptians and Tunisians will make it through the transition
195
589488
3448
不論埃及人或突尼西亞人會咬牙度過轉換期，
10:04
or this will end in bloody ethnic and religious conflict,
196
592936
4023
或是最後變成了血腥的種族和聰轎衝突，
10:08
whether the Syrians will maintain nonviolent discipline,
197
596959
3882
不論敘利亞人是否會維持非暴力的紀律，
10:12
faced with the brutal daily violence
198
600841
3420
當他們面對的是一天天殘酷的暴力，
10:16
which kills thousands already,
199
604261
1887
而這已經讓他們造成了上千人的傷亡，
10:18
or they will slip into violent struggle
200
606148
1857
或是他們會順勢的變成暴力抗爭
10:20
and make ugly civil war.
201
608005
3797
並因此引爆內戰。
10:23
Will these revolutions be whole like through the transitions
202
611802
3816
這場革命在他轉向民主的路上
10:27
to democracy or be overtaken by military
203
615618
2382
會保持他的完整性嗎?還是會被軍方
10:30
or extremists of all kinds? We cannot tell.
204
618000
4362
或類似極端主義給奪走? 我們不知道。
10:34
Same works for the Western sector, where you can see
205
622362
2947
同樣的事情在西方也在上演，你可以看到
10:37
all of these excited young people protesting around the world,
206
625309
3029
這些興奮的年輕人在世界各處抗爭著，
10:40
occupying this, occupying that.
207
628338
2697
佔領這個，佔領那個。
10:43
Are they going to become the world wave?
208
631035
3191
他們會變成世界的潮流嗎?
10:46
Are they going to find their skills, their enthusiasm,
209
634226
3554
他們會發現他們的技能、熱情
10:49
and their strategy to find what they really want
210
637780
3437
和他們的策略來發現他們真正想要的
10:53
and push for the reform, or will they just stay
211
641217
3033
並將他們推向重建的路上? 抑或是
10:56
complaining about the endless list of the things they hate?
212
644250
5264
他們只會持續抱怨那些
他們厭惡且無止盡的事情?
他們厭惡且無止盡的事情?
11:01
This is the difference between two towns.
213
649514
3328
這就是兩座城市之間有的差別。
11:04
Now, what [do] the statistics have?
214
652842
2696
現在，統計學家有個甚麼資訊?
11:07
My friend's book, Maria Stephan's book,
215
655538
2385
我一個朋友的書，Maria Stephan的書，
11:09
talks a lot about violent and nonviolent struggle,
216
657923
2847
講述很多關於暴力和非暴力抗爭的事，
11:12
and there are some shocking data.
217
660770
2743
而這裡有些令人震撼的資料。
11:15
If you look at the last 35 years
218
663513
2489
如果你回顧過去的35年，
11:18
and different social transitions from dictatorship to democracy,
219
666002
3265
從獨裁轉到民主的路上有不同的社會轉變
11:21
you will see that out of 67 different cases,
220
669267
3586
你會發現有67種不一樣的情形，
11:24
in 50 of these cases it was nonviolent struggle
221
672853
3293
其中的50個是非暴力型的抗爭
11:28
which was the key power.
222
676146
3376
而這就是關鍵。
11:31
This is one more reason to look at this phenomenon.
223
679522
2920
這是另一個去關注這個現象的理由。
11:34
This is one more reason to look at the Generation Epsilon,
224
682442
2736
這是另一個去關注Epsilon世代的理由，
11:37
enough for me to give them credit and hope
225
685178
3480
我已經給他們足夠信譽和希望了
11:40
that they will find their skills and their courage
226
688658
3927
他們會發現他們的技能和勇氣，
11:44
to use the nonviolent struggle
227
692585
1985
應用在非暴力性抗爭上，
11:46
and thus fix at least a part of the mess
228
694570
2481
並最少能因此修正一些
11:49
our generation is making in this world.
229
697051
2409
由我們這世代在世上所造成的混亂
11:51
Thank you. (Applause)

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Srdja Popovic - OrganizerSrdja Popovic was a founder and leader of the student movement that brought down the Milosovic regime. Now, he helps other nonviolent movements learn and grow.
Why you should listen
Srdja Popovic was one of the founders and key organizers of the Serbian nonviolent resistance group Otpor! Otpor!’s campaign to unseat Serbian president Slobodan Milosovic found success in October 2000 when hundreds of thousands of protestors converged upon and took over the Serbian Parliament, effectively ending Milosevic’s rule. After the revolution, Popovic served a term as a member of the Serbian National Assembly 2000-2003.
In 2003, Popovic and other ex-Otpor! activists started the nonprofit educational institution the Centre for Applied Nonviolent Action and Strategies (CANVAS) (www.canvasopedia.org). CANVAS has worked with people from 37 countries, including Zimbabwe, Burma, Iran and Venezuela, spreading knowledge on nonviolent strategies and tactics that was used by the Serbian pro-democracy movement to other non-democratic countries. CANVAS has worked with the activists responsible for successful movements such as the Georgian “Rose Revolution” of 2003 and the Ukrainian “Orange Revolution” of 2004-2005. It also transferred knowledge to Lebanese activists in 2004 to address the crisis after the assassination of Prime Minister Harriri, and assisted participants in the Maldives’ revolution in 2008. Recently CANVAS has worked with April 6th, a key group in the Egyptian nonviolent uprising, as well as other groups from the Middle East.
CANVAS’ teachings are available in a documentary, "Bringing Down a Dictator," featuring Otpor strategies to topple Milosevic. Its manual "Nonviolent Struggle: 50 Crucial Points" was translated into 16 languages, including Farsi and Arabic, and was downloaded 17,000 times from Iran during that country's 2009 protests.
