Abstract

The author develops the relation between outcomes and measures by taking into account the implications of the nonviolent values. Both outcomes and measures are in reference to the methods, procedures and strategies of action. ln other words how we can achieve what we want in a natural nonviolent struggle. lt is about constructing a strategic idea that underlines that a certain purpose is not obtained through measures and that in relation to the Gandhi's reasoning; it is about an internal coherence and not just a moral emotion. Strategically speaking, even the non-violence action reminds us that all political efficiency should be measured not by what it could obtain, but how it can be obtained.
