Abstract
The promotion of peace by conscious and forceful articulation of agonism is one of the central and recurring motifs across the oeuvre of Norwegian rhetorician, author and public intellectual Georg Johannesen (1931-2005). The article concentrates on one of his texts, a partisan appeal, making serious charges against those in power, in a conflict described (non-metaphorically) as a matter of life and death. Apart from introducing Georg Johannesen to a non-Norwegian public, the aim of this paper is to sketch out the concept of “counterhegemonic peace movements” in the nuclear age.
