Losing Their Guns

A close look into the origins of gun control across the world

Produktbeschreibung

Losing Their Guns takes readers on a compelling journey across continents to uncover how nations surrendered one of the most fundamental rights in human history-the right to keep and bear arms. Through powerful historical narratives and modern-day case studies, Heather Allen reveals how quickly governments have restricted, confiscated, or eliminated firearm ownership and how those decisions changed the course of societies and individual lives. From Australia's sweeping buyback programs to China's authoritarian disarmament, from England's incremental restrictions to the cultural shifts in Greece, Allen illustrates how disarmament is rarely about safety alone. It is often rooted in political leverage, state control, civil unrest, and fear of resistance. Each chapter offers a concise look at when gun freedoms existed, how they were reduced, and what happened afterward. This book is not simply about legislation. It is about sovereignty, security, and the fragile relationship between citizens and their governments. Whether you are a student of history, a defender of constitutional freedoms, or someone seeking clarity in a global debate, Losing Their Guns equips you with historical context and a sobering warning: rights are seldom taken all at once-most are lost slowly, quietly, and sometimes willingly.
