RULES FOR RADICALS
A Practical Primer for Realistic Radicals
SAUL D. ALINSKY

Originally published in 1971, this is the 1989 edition.

“Where there are no men, be thou a man.”
— RABBI HILLEL

“Let them call me rebel and welcome, I feel no concern
from it; but I should suffer the misery of devils,
were I to make a whore of my soul..
—THOMAS PAINE

Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder
acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all
our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to
know where mythology leaves off and history begins—
or which is which), the first radical known to man
who rebelled against the establishment and did it
so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom
—Lucifer.
—SAUL ALINSKY
