Abstract

This article originally explores the philosophical background of Martin Luther King, Jr’s conception of nonviolence. In particular, it focuses on the role of the theory of love for the development of his thought. It takes into account the role of King’s religious education, and establishes theoretical links to Gandhi’s own philosophy and action.
