                                          %COERCION 850501

     Coercion  entails  the  attempt to get  a  person  to
behave  contrary  to  that person's will.    The  contrary
behavior which is required may be overt or covert,   legal
or illegal,  generous or selfish, gentle or violent,  good
or evil,  etc.   The coercion is the coercion of a will by
another will.  The conflict is a conflict between or among
will which represent conflict among ideals.

     The  person who inflicts coercion does not serve  the
ideal  of  promoting open and honest dialogue in  contexts
within  which people may safely be intimate in  vulnerable
relationships; i.e., be secure.   The practice of coercion
undermines  the  possibility  of  security  known  as  the
freedom   to  be  vulnerable  within  meaningful  intimate
relationships.    To  be "successful"   coercion  must  be
violent;  i.e.,  must violate the integrity of the  person
who is coerced.   The violence may take any one or more of
many forms:   physical, chemical, nuclear,  psychological,
economic,  religious, philosophical, political,  familial,
sexual, etc.

     Intellectual  violence does violence to  intellectual
truth,    clarity,   logic  expression,   insight,    etc.
Intellectual  coercion seeks to force one person to  think
and feel in accordance with the will of another; violating
academic and constitutional freedoms of communication  and
political expression.
