- The book is the result of a nine-year ethnography of British anti-militarist social movements. Rossdale played an active role within these movements while conducting the study, engaging with a substantial network of organisations, groups and NGOs. This lengthy process of ‘participant observation’ allowed for a detailed study of British anti-militarism, encompassing access to sites that would be unavailable without sustained engagement and mutual trust, including court rooms, NGO decision-making spaces, and illegal/semi-legal civil disobedience. The book’s novel and intimate empirical material is mobilised towards a series of contributions to contemporary research and literature on militarism and resistance.
