After reading this book, http://www.aeinstein.org/organizations/org/FDTD.pdf I wonder how different the outcome of the Occupy Movement might have been if they'd followed Gene Sharp's blueprint.
The book has been translated into several languages and can be found on Gene's website:

The way things are going, this information could come in handy.
Hey everybody, Occupy's Strike Debt group just created a debt relief program called Rolling Jubilee. It is absolutely BRILLIANT. People donate money to the project, they buy debt at a discount, then unlike banks that service the debt and collect it for profit, Rolling Jubilee relenquishs the debtor of that debt.
B-R-I-L-L-I-A-N-T!!!
Please donate to this!!! $50,000 can pay off $1M or more in debt (so, if only 1000 people donate $50, $1M in debt can be lifted off the backs of those in debt). $25 can pay off $500 or more in debts.
