David O'Rourke

David O’Rourke writes about state uses of social idealism and utopian projects to establish their total control and repress dissent. From the American slave states to the Soviet mines in Magadan he has described the common uses of social ideals to justify coerced labor. He co-wrote and produced the documentary film Red Terror on the Amber Coast, describing the KGB repression during the Soviet’s fifty-year occupation of the Baltic Republics following the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. And from New York Newsday to the San Jose Mercury News; from Commonweal to the Catholic News Service, over the course of more than forty years he has described Americans’ energetic and imaginative resistances to repression.
