Abstract

Srđa Popović (1973) is one of the founders of the Center for Applied Nonviolent Action and Strategies (CANVAS), a Belgrade-based non-profit institution that defines itself as “an organization that advocates for the use of nonviolence resistance to promote human rights and democracy.” Since its foundation in 2003, CANVAS has worked with organisations from all five continents, training them in specific techniques and approaches for challenging authoritarian regimes. As its executive director, Popović has been portrayed both as a guru of non-violent resistance and an internationally recognised public intellectual, and as an agent serving the US foreign policy agenda.
