10 Preset Sound Patterns are included in Brainwave Tuner Lite(20 in Full Version!):
- Headache Therapy: Helps alleviating headaches with a mixture of steady low theta (5Hz) and mid-alpha (10Hz) waves.
- Meditation: Concentrating on this tone helps quickly attaining a meditative state of mind.
- Schumann Resonance: Helps meditating with a steady 7.83Hz alpha tone. This is also the resonance of the Earth's magnetic field, making it a very natural meditative frequency.
- Sleep Induction: Gently slows the brain frequency down to a 3Hz delta wave, which usually occurs in a deep sleep thus to gradually induce one's sleepiness.
- Relaxation: Helps to relax with a basic sweep from a regular beta wave (15Hz) down to a low alpha wave (7Hz), in order to save you from certain intense strain.
- Self-hypnosis: Helps getting into a self-hypnotic state. The user should listen to the repeating sound and concentrate on it.
- Edge of Consciousness: Discover the true meaning of life and consciousness with this track taking you to the very edge of the conscious mind.
- Earth Peace Night: This is an Earth Meditation track that helps relax and mediate.
- Attention Increase: Helps focusing by bringing the brain to a high beta frequency. The frequency is lowered briefly once every 15 seconds to keep the brain more receptive.
- Intelligent Increase: This 10Hz alpha tone helps increase the blood flow in the brain, promote dendrite and synapse growth, increase IQ points and cognitive abilities.

Binaural Beats Therapy - beta
"As an adult with ADHD, the program for mental alertness has really helped me especially in noisy and crowded spaces like restaurants and coffee shops!" - Jen, 4/11/2014
"An amazing app never thought it would work. I use it all the time, I recommend it as a meditation aid" - James, 3/23/2014
"OMG the deep sleep has helped me achieve a level of sleep I had before having my kids, 12 years ago. Amazing" - Omar, 5/29/2014
The Binaural Beats were discovered in 1839 by Heinrich Wilhelm Dove, and earned greater public awareness in the late 20th century based on claims that binaural beats help induce relaxation, meditation, creativity and other desirable mental states. The effect on the brainwaves depends on the difference in frequencies of each tone, for example, if 300 Hz was played in one ear and 310 in the other, then the Binaural beat would have a frequency of 10 Hz.
You can find a more complete description on the dedicated wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binaural_beats).
In this app you will find different types of presets that can help you to sleep, meditate, concentrate , learn better, reduce some types of pain, develop your creativity ….
It takes some time of practice to really feel the effects so don't give up after your first try. And you have to know that it doesn't work on some people.
We really recommend first time users to check out our Facebook (http://on.fb.me/lBDvPK) and Google+ (http://bit.ly/FBBTGP) communities.

Hypnotic Spiral
BRAIN WAVES (Binaurals)
Brain waves let you improve your brain with 11 different binaural beats. Alphas, betas, thetas, delta and gamma waves.
You can use these waves to relax, to meditate, to sleep or for self-hypnosis.
Brain Waves
You can generate your own frequencies using two independent oscillators, or choose one of the four presets:
Theta, Alpha, Beta or Delta.
The sounds are produced in real time, they are not pre-recorded sounds.
This enables to play them without interruption.
Pure sinewave sounds processed in real time through your mobile device with Pure Data (libpd).
The resultant frequency is the difference between the two that have been generated in each oscillator, for example:
140Hz in Right and 145Hz in Left results in a 5Hz binaural frequency.
About Binaural Waves Frequency and Associated Mental State:
Gamma = 27 Hz and up
Gamma is associated with the formation of ideas, language and memory processing, and various types of learning. Gamma waves have been shown to disappear during deep sleep induced by anesthesia, but return with the transition back to a wakeful state.
Beta = 12hz - 27hz
Wide awake. This is generally the mental state most people are in during the day and most of their waking lives. Usually, this state in itself is uneventful, but don't underestimate its importance. Many people lack sufficient beta activity, which can cause mental or emotional disorders such as depression and insomnia. And low SMR production (a sub-range of beta at 12-15hz) may be related to insomnia. Stimulating beta activity can improve emotional stability, energy levels, attentiveness and concentration.
Alpha = 8hz - 12hz
Awake but relaxed and not processing much information. When you get up in the morning and just before sleep, you are naturally in this state. When you close your eyes your brain automatically starts producing more alpha waves.
Many studies monitoring the EEG activity of experienced meditators have revealed strong increases in alpha activity.Alpha activity has also been connected to the ability to recall memories, lessened discomfort and pain, and reductions in stress and anxiety.
Theta = 3hz - 8hz
Light sleep or extreme relaxation.
Theta is also a very receptive mental state that has proven useful for hypnotherapy, as well as self-hypnosis using recorded affirmations and suggestions.
Delta = 0.2hz - 3hz
Deep, dreamless sleep. Delta is the slowest band of brainwaves. When your dominant brainwave is delta, your body is healing itself and "resetting" its internal clocks. You do not dream in this state and are completely unconscious.
For best result please use headphones.
Take care of your hearing, is not necessary to hear these sounds at high volume.
More waves and options coming soon!

This will make you feel more relaxed and it's a perfect way to start your meditation or just to chill out. Also a lower brain frequency will reduce your stress level, your learning time and help you by improving your concentration.
For this app to work you need to use STEREO HEADPHONES!
The sound volume should always be adjusted to a safe and comfortable level.
WARNING: Do not listen to this track while driving or operating heavy machinery!!!
Brainwave A Day
• Each experience is set to an original soundtrack- expertly crafted music composed specifically for brainwave stimulation
• Explore a wide range of brainwave stimulation benefits- relaxation/stress relief, concentration/focus, sleep induction, enhanced meditation, and more!
• A description and research citation is paired with each session- we won't just tell you that something works, we'll show you why it works
• Alpha, beta, delta, theta, gamma wave stimulation, and many even more interesting protocols included
• We tell you how we produced every brainwave experience, and the entire protocol is available for each one
And best of all, this app demonstrates a patented new technology for brainwave stimulation. With this breakthrough method, any music or audio file can be re-engineered to subtly stimulate mental activity. Nothing more is needed, no binaural beats, isochronic tones or any other effect.
This app was produced by Transparent Corp. If you've ever used a brainwave product before, you've probably interacted with Transparent technology. Our software has been used by thousands of companies to fuel their creations.
If you have any comments, concerns or questions, please feel free to contact us via the "Email developer" option below. If you have feedback, we want to hear it!
If you're having a problem, let us try to correct it first.
- Internet / SD Card Storage Questions?
You will need a connection to either stream or download each session. There was no other way to showcase this much variety without exceeding Google's app size limit.
But you will have the option to download each new file (they're 10-56 MB each) to be used later when a connection isn't available. They are automatically stored on your SD Card, and to save space, old files will be deleted every time a new one is downloaded.
- How does the brainwave schedule work?
There are 30 unique experiences altogether. Each day that you open the app you'll be presented with a new one- they're not tied to specific days of the month, but are instead presented to you in a set order. So you can use this app whenever you have time, and you will experience every brainwave the app has to offer!
- What do you mean by brainwave stimulation/brainwave entrainment? (pronounced: "ehn - TRAIN - mint")
Because brainwaves are highly rhythmic and connected to a wide variety of mental states, continued exposure to a pulsing sound at a specific frequency can induce desired "brain wave" activity. With the right equipment, you can effectively watch these changes happen by analyzing brain activity.
For a far more detailed explanation, see the "How this works" section in the app itself.
- How can I access all of the different brainwave experiences included in this app?
The goal of this app is to demonstrate the many benefits of brainwave stimulation, and we wanted to make that experience easy for everyone to access, so this app is free, with no ads. And in a completely transparent fashion, you can view the research and download everything you need to make each brainwave experience in this app!
Our PC software includes all of the brainwave stimulation in this app and more, but it isn't free because we spend lots of time and money working on it, and that goes to support research and development to bring even better brainwave stimulation solutions to more users, clinicians, and therapists.
If we see a lot of interest in "Brainwave A Day," we will create more comprehensive mobile apps in the future. You can help us by leaving positive feedback, and we'll take it as a sign that you want more! Thanks for your support!
** UPDATE ** By popular demand, you can now purchase any of the brainwaves files, so you can use them for more than one day if you choose!

Binaural Beats and Relaxation
Binaural beats, or binaural tones, are auditory processing artifacts, or apparent sounds, caused by specific physical stimuli.
Binaural beats reportedly influence the brain in more subtle ways through the entrainment of brainwaves and provide other health benefits such as control over pain.
Binaural Beats were discovered in 1839 by Heinrich Wilhelm Dove, and earned greater public awareness in the late 20th century based on claims that binaural beats help induce relaxation, meditation, creativity and other desirable mental states.
The effect on the brainwaves depends on the difference in frequencies of each tone, for example, if 300 Hz was played in one ear and 310 in the other, then the Binaural beat would have a frequency of 10 Hz. See more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binaural_beats
So Binaural Beats and Relaxation can help you to induce relaxation, sleep, creativity and many other desirable mental states.
Improve several aspects:
* Make time go faster on flights.
* Insomnia relief.

Stop Smoking Hypnosis
Hypnosis is a natural state in which everyone moves in and out of every day. We experience hypnosis when day-dreaming or when we have our attention intensely focused on something of interest. In this altered state of awareness, our unconscious mind is more open and receptive to ideas and suggestion.
By using hypnosis, we can present information to our unconscious mind to bring about the changes we desire. It may be that the unconscious mind is viewing certain situations from a flawed perspective, which means that it is influencing our bodies' responses in a negative way,
e.g. we feel anxious and afraid of something which is really not all that threatening (phobias and fears). In hypnosis, we can correct those flawed perceptions which, in turn, will result in the unconscious mind changing the way it influences our feelings and our physical responses. We
can also present information to the unconscious mind about positive things we want to experience, e.g. feeling more confident in a certain situation and performing better. Our unconscious mind cannot distinguish between what is real and what is imaginary. When we use the power of hypnosis to present information to the unconscious mind in our imagination, our unconscious can accept that as real and will then go on to respond to that new information. It is important to know that the more you believe in the power of your mind to bring about what you want, and the more you commit to focusing your attention on what you want, the better the results will be. One session of hypnotic suggestions will not bring about much change at all. However, repeated suggestions in line with your goals and a strong focus on the outcomes you really want will help you to make these a reality.
Binaural Pain Killer
this app is specifically made with beats that induce endorphins production, in order to relieve naturally from pain.
- The use of a headphone is needed to benefit fully from this app

Music Therapy for Sound Sleep
★ Music Therapy for Sound Sleep (Full Version) with 8 music pieces and 12 ambient sounds is now available on Google Play!
Enrich Your Imagination with a Sound Mixer in the latest version!
The latest version of Music Therapy for Sound Sleep provides a group of relaxing natural sounds for you to choose and mix, creating your own fantastic ocean scenes. These sounds help enrich your imagination thus to further relax in a pleasant surroundings with ocean waves and soothing rains. It is totally up to you to customize each track with one or several ambient sounds, with volume bars separated from the main piano melodies.
Totally different from the so-called leisure music, subliminal music embeds Alpha Wave to various musical pieces by delicately setting the rhythm to a certain frequency, while stimulating imagination with certain sound effects. Listening to the music, our sub-consciousness is awakened. It is guiding us to a brand new discovery of our potentials, to relaxation, and to creativity.
Low Speed Alpha Wave has a frequency from 8Hz to 9Hz, which stimulates a state at which one is nearly asleep and cannot think clearly. To generate such a frequency in one's mind, binaural beats are applied. For example, if the left ear is presented with a steady tone of 500Hz and the right ear a steady tone of 508Hz, these two tones combine in the brain. The difference, 8Hz, is perceived by the brain and is a very effective stimulus for brainwave entrainment.

Calming Music to Tranquilize
Tranquility does not mean dead silence, or a mind without a single thought. It means a return to pureness and to achieve a spiritual unification.
Tranquility is the root of everything in this world. It can be compared to a charger which provides infinite energies. When our energies are used up, we shall choose to be tranquilized. Just like having a full charge, our minds will be refreshed, our bodies being more active.
Pure sounds played by traditional Chinese instruments will lead you to a state of naturalness and bring about positive feelings.

Music Therapy for Refreshment
Different from leisure music, subliminal music therapy embeds Alpha Wave to various musical pieces by setting the rhythm to a certain frequency. Listening to such music, our sub-consciousness is awakened. It is guiding us to a brand new discovery of our potentials, to relaxation and to creativity.
To generate Alpha Wave in one's mind, binaural beats are applied. For example, if the left ear is presented with a steady tone of 500Hz and the right ear a steady tone of 510Hz, these two tones combine in the brain. The difference, 10Hz, is perceived by the brain.
- Graceful tunes with string music and natural sounds
- Install Location to SD card
- Well-designed interface and easy operating
- Quick mental refreshing
- For relaxation at any time
Calming Music to Simplicity
Return to Simplicity is to simplify your mind, which aims to set yourself free from those selfish ideas and personal considerations, to relieve all kind of stress and pressure.
A famous Chinese medical expert Sun Simiao once said: "A man good at regimen usually thinks less, wants less, talks little, smiles little, with fewer thoughts and fewer sorrows", in that excessive thoughtfulness will cause intense emotional upheavals, doing harm to people's health by upsetting the balance of Yin and Yang in our bodies.
Therefore, it is necessary to keep a tranquil mind. With fewer selfish needs and evil intentions, we can protect ourselves from those harmful emotions such as anxiety and depression, which affects both our physical and psycho health.

Chakra Opening Brainwave Trial
Now, Imoblife Inc.(DownloadAndroid) are working in collaboration with The Unexplainable Store to develop top-qualified brainwave apps for Android users.*
Chakras are vast (yet confined) pools of energy in our bodies which govern our psychological qualities. There are seven main chakras in all (four in our upper body which govern our mental properties and three in the lower body which govern our instinctual properties).
All of the chakras contribute to a human's well-being. Our instincts would join forces with our feelings and thinking. Some of our chakras are usually not open or not operated excellently, but some are over-active, which caused imbalance among Chakras. If the chakras are not balanced, peace with the self cannot be achieved.
Chakra Opening Brainwave is a brainwave stimulation app that tunes your Chakra frequencies to the most powerful and balanced state and gives you a shift in Spiritual energy. It stimulates each of the seven Chakras with different frequency ranges and predetermined base frequencies, thus providing you an excellent way to stimulate your sensation and spirit after a long stressful day. Compared with other ways of refreshing, it is more thorough in tuning your energy and turning you into a spiritual powerhouse.
The human nervous system is a network connecting the sensory organs to the brain. The Chakras, or energy centers, act as a "pump" which direct spiritual energy through this system. For example, Earth energy is drawn up through your Root Chakra and passed to the Sacral Chakra which is then passed to the Solar Plexus, then the heart, then throat, brow, and finally the crown Chakra. Once energy reaches beyond the crown, experiences and sensations move to realms beyond explanation. The Chakra system is considered by many to be the most important system to work on. It is a base on which most other development is built.
Notable Features of Chakra Opening:
- Professionally built isochronic tones with high sound quality
- Covers each and every chakra and produce deep spiritual progression
- Detailed usage instructions and tips for Chakra Tuning for best user experience
- Well-designed User Interface and animation
- Repeat time and screen auto-lock settings
- Optional visualization patterns to company the brainwave playback
Yoga Moment Lite
Yoga Moment provides graceful and attractive yoga tunes with a far-eastern aroma. This app aims not only to help you relax at your leisure time, but also can be set as the background music when practicing Yoga. (The total length of music pieces in the full version is about 60 minutes, just the same as a normal Yoga class hour.)
Yoga, a word of Sanskrit origin, carries a meaning of "to control", "to yoke" or "to unite". It is a practice which emphasizes self control both in mind and physical movements, further to unite one's body and soul to achieve an optimum state.
Constantly listening to Yoga music, we can relax and heal our minds as well as stimulate our inner potentials. We need refreshment to be more energetic, and self control to be more efficient. Here we let the music be our guidance, awakening our inherent power to heal our minds, which has been burdened with too much pressure.
- 15 soothing yoga tunes (7 in Lite Version)
- Slide show of varied background images
- Set your favorite tunes to Top of the playlist
- Both for relaxation and practicing Yoga
- Music length equal to a Yoga class hour

We welcome the retelling of traditional stories because we are always seeking both to understand and endure the stories we inhabit and ultimately the narrative which is our entire life.Why else would both the main characters in Casablanca, played by Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart, ask for the same song to be played over and over? The subtext of "Play it again, Sam" is, "I am still trying to understand, to put the pieces of my life together."

WASHINGTON,DC (Catholic Online) - Why are we able to enjoy a movie that we have already seen, or tell a well-known story whose outcome we already know? Cyprian and I sat down over the weekend to watch the 2004 film, Miracle, starring Kurt Russell, about the 1978 victory of the US hockey team over the Soviets at the Lake Placid Olympics.
I had seen this movie at least two times. I knew the ending and several of the key plot points along the way, but I was completely absorbed watching all of it for 2 hours and 15 minutes. So was Cyprian, who knew the US was going to win because I had told him, and we both were disappointed when there were no "extras' to watch on the DVD.
Much of the reason we were enthralled by the film was because it was extremely well-made, with Kurt Russell as the US coach, Herb Brooks, taking on the entire hockey establishment with his commitment to beat the Soviets, perhaps the greatest hockey team of all time. Not only was the story of the 1978 victory familiar to us but also the narrative trope of the underdog winning in spite of the odds, in spite of the resistance against him. In this case, it was Herb Brooks and his college hockey players overcoming the resistance of his own colleagues as well as the Soviet hockey team.
We knew everything that was going to happen in that film, but for two hours we were completely in the grasp of the storytelling, skillfully directed by Gavin O'Connor. It must be the case that our appreciation of art, whether a film, a novel, or a painting is not found in its presentation of the new, per se. All art, with the exception of kitsch, offers its audience something new in the way the familiar is represented on stage, on the movie screen, on a canvas, or in a book.
When the human form was contorted in cubes by Picasso in his 1907 painting, Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, his audience, no matter how shocked or delighted by the new cubist style, still recognized the human figures, the Young Woman, i.e., prostitutes of Avignon. Indeed, it would have been a superficial critic who applauded Picasso for the stylistic invention if it had not succeeded in revealing something interesting about the young woman it depicts. In other words, we know in general what a young prostitute might look like, that's not new. But Picasso succeeded by his new style in depicting the harsh realities of a prostitute's life. One might say an artist employs the new, his creativity, to re-imagine or re-present what we are already familiar with, and in doing so offers us insight, or greater clarity, into the subject of the work. (Obviously this description would be amended in the case of totally abstract works.)
Once we have it that art reproduces the human, nature, and the spiritual we can appreciate how Aristotle in his Poetics captured the aesthetic experience with his description of Greek tragedy involving the "catharsis of pity and fear." What we can tease out of this highly compressed statement is important for two reasons: first, the viewer undergoes an experience called a catharsis, and, second, that catharsis has something to do with "pity and fear." Thus, even without defining precisely what Aristotle meant, we know that for him tragedy was about the human experience, about what we all face along the way, from the impact of misfortune to the consequences of our own mistakes, especially the mistake of pride.
Allow me to use Aristotle's discussion of tragedy to apply to the arts in general, especially those that employ narratives such as film, novels, and paintings. What Aristotle meant by the "catharsis of pity and fear" is precisely what answers my original question: how we can enjoy a story we've already been told. First of all, the human stories we meet in art are very finite. Somewhere in my studies I came across an author who had created a list of all possible human narratives, and it wasn't very long. Secondly, these narratives are familiar, along with the emotions and worries that accompany them. Aristotle's "pity and fear" represent the common thoughts and emotions we all have when, for example, a son rebels against his father, or young lovers disobey their parents, and so on.
We can enjoy, even be riveted, by the retelling of these human stories because their artistic representation, if skillfully made, provides us greater clarity, i.e., catharsis, about the dynamics of that story, our story, thus allaying our predictable emotions and worries about being faced with that situation ourselves. Catharsis is not an emotional purgation, it is an experience of clarity, of insight, that in making sense of the human condition allows us at least a moment of relief from the anxieties that we bear from day to day. In fact, we welcome the retelling of traditional stories because we are always seeking both to understand and endure the stories we inhabit and ultimately the narrative which is our entire life.
Why else would both the main characters in Casablanca, played by Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart, ask for the same song to be played over and over? The subtext of "Play it again, Sam" is, "I am still trying to understand, to put the pieces of my life together."

Nina Nesbitt - 'Jonathan Ross' Halloween party - Arrivals - London, United Kingdom - Saturday 1st November 2014
In an age where pop stars seem intent on shocking and wearing as little as possible, Scottish-Swedish songstress Nina Nesbitt is something akin to a breath of fresh air. Fully clothed - shock horror - and with no sign of twerking, her debut album arrives after two years of honing her craft, which culminated last year with being the soundtrack to the John Lewis campaign.
Given her striking appearance, it wouldn't be completely inconceivable to think 'Peroxide' was a reference to Nesbitt's bleach blonde hair, but the title and opening track soon shows there is much more to it than this - and indeed Nesbitt herself. A chiming mid-tempo number, it actually refers to the burning effect of a broken relationship and has an impressive grandness that would be expected from a closing number. If this is an indication that this isn't your typical teenager, the idea is reaffirmed by 'Stay Out'; a witty social commentary on trends and trying to fit in laced with infectious hooks. The ear for catchy melody is demonstrated further on 'Selfies' which, despite an under-developed chorus, manages to provide insight into the potential mindset of those who indulge in self-portraits. Up to this point of the record, it is clear that Nesbitt is capable of bouncy pop, but 'Align' signals a wider ability. A string-laden ballad not unlike Howie Day's 'Collide', we are given a delicate but stirring vocal performance that impresses. She returns to the genre on a couple of occasions later on - notably the country-tinged duet 'Hold You' with Kodaline - to demonstrate an aptitude for slower tempo material that places greater emphasis on her voice.
The second half of the record provides further expansion to Nesbitt's musical landscape, with 'The Outcome' edging toward rock and not totally unlike early Avril Lavigne, while the impressive coming-of-age track '18 Candles' sees her sounding like a young KT Tunstall. 'He's The One I'm Bringing Back' is a venture into funk that aims for fun but marginally falls into annoyance, but it's a small blot on what is a very assured first release. What Nesbitt has very successfully done is made a record that covers themes that most can relate to from their teenage years - first love, broken relationships, growing up - in a way that is accessible to those both younger and older, whilst crucially avoiding clichés in most cases. Put this together with her ability for utilising catchy pop hooks across various musical styles and the result is a young artist with a lot of talent and huge potential - and who can let her music earn her attention, as opposed to her image.

Currently on her 2013 UK tour, Nina Nesbitt performs live at Brighton's Great Escape Festival for Vevo's Summer Six tour feature. She plays her new song '18 Candles' - not to be confused with the song of the same name by The Sessions.

The Anarchist Federation has taken grave exception to the claims that acts of violence were perpetrated by only a tiny minority of the thousands of students who took part in last Wednesday's demonstration against the Coalition's planned tuition fee increase.
It insists that "contrary to the corporate media commentaries, a significant portion of the march also involved itself in the property destruction and occupation at Millbank Tower ... None of the assessments of the protesters as 'a militant minority' is accurate. Such a claim is made even more ridiculous by the rolling 24-hour news coverage that... showed a clear diversity of students and education workers taking great pleasure in smashing windows, office equipment and scuffling with the police".
Actually, the idea that the "corporate media" would wish to downplay the extent of the violence perpetrated by the students is itself ridiculous. The more widespread and endemic the violence, the bigger and better the story and the more newspapers can be sold off the back of it. Nevertheless, there is an unmistakeable sense of wishful thinking in many articles by journalists opposed to the Coalition's policies; that it would have been wonderful if the violence had been as widely supported as the Anarchist Federation claimed it was – to "send a message of resistance to the cuts". Thus Priyamvada Gopal in The Guardian writes of the criticism of the students who engaged in physical violence: "Those who inflict violence through laws, budgets and the hypocritical language of shared pain feel entitled to demand non-violence. As the basis of protest, non-violence has been perverted ... into a subterfuge for rulers; a pious excuse to protect them from the consequences of their actions."
Ms Gopal, a lecturer in English at Cambridge University, obviously has little faith in the ability of the electorate to deliver, via the ballot box, appropriate "consequences" for the Coalition.
Something more violent than the loss of power at the next general election is clearly required. In a way, one can understand this frustration – the opinion polls show that the governing parties enjoy a 50 per cent share of public support: remarkably high, by the standards of most administrations in recent years. How infuriating that the deluded public fail properly to appreciate the completely unnecessary nature of the Coalition's debt reduction programme!
Still, it is easy to understand the fury of those students who voted Liberal Democrat specifically because it was the only party committed to ending the system of tuition fees introduced by Labour, with Nick Clegg declaring to the National Union of Students' annual conference in April: "The plans that... the Conservative and Labour parties are cooking to raise the cap on tuition fees is wrong. We will resist, vote against, campaign against any lifting of that cap." Johann Hari argued in this newspaper last week that as a result of this betrayal, Clegg is "committing political suicide... it is now probable he will lose his seat."
Yes, and that's the proper way of going about things in a parliamentary democracy governed by the rule of law, rather than a contest of brute physical force between riot police and the mob (a contest, by the way, that will almost invariably be won by the former).
There is a certain irony in these events, coinciding as they do with the release from house arrest of Burma's Nobel Peace Prize winner, Aung San Suu Kyi. This inspiring campaigner for democracy has always been a rigorous proponent of the politics of non-violence, repeatedly citing her intellectual debt to Mahatma Gandhi. In 1999, she told an interviewer: "We are convinced that the non-violent approach is the best. In the long run it pays off, even if that run is longer because of its non-violent nature."
Essentially the same approach was adopted by Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela, but not by Robert Mugabe.
The non-violent approach is a desperately hard road to tread for such freedom fighters and Aung San Suu Kyi, King and Mandela were all criticised from within their own movements for subjecting them to such a difficult discipline. The point, however, is that liberation movements based on the exercise of brute force are permanently corrupted by the experience. This is particularly clear in Zimbabwe; when last week one of Mugabe's spokesmen said that "only war veterans and chiefs have the right and the power to hold rallies because they fought for this country... no leader without war credentials will rule Zimbabwe", he was giving characteristic expression to this form of absolute entitlement via armed struggle.
Similarly, as Frank Dikköter observes in his remarkable new book Mao's Great Famine, it was in large measure because the Communist leadership had been brutalised by its bloody campaign to seize power in China from the Nationalists that it was able to countenance the starvation of millions of its own people as part of a policy of so-called "modernisation" (turning farms into steel mills).
This might appear a ludicrously long way from the events at Millbank last Wednesday, but there remains on the extreme left, in some of our former polytechnics, a strand of deep admiration for Mao and his methods and a constant delusion that their own tiny cliques truly represent the oppressed proletariat in its entirety.
It is interesting to imagine what said proletariat will make of the view of such students and lecturers that the increase in university tuition fees represents the most unacceptable edge of the state's oppression.
Since those attending tertiary education come overwhelmingly from non-proletariat homes, one wonders if they might instead think that this is more of a middle-class protection racket. After all, the Coalition's proposals involve former students in the repayment of loans only when they start to earn more than £21,000 and even then the repayment level would be at a rate of 9p per pound of annual income.
Besides, the alternative policy, suggested by the Liberal Democrats before the general election, was of some form of graduate tax. Is there the slightest difference of principle between these two supposedly antithetical polices? In each case, students will not be paying for their university education during their time of studying. In each case they would only be paying back the state once they had achieved a certain level of income.
It may be, as the protesters allege, that the prospect of having to make such repayments will discourage some from less affluent homes from applying to universities in the first place. We don't yet know. What we do know is that the same critics were certain that the original imposition of tuition fees would result in a sharp drop in the number of those applying to enter tertiary education – and nothing of the sort happened: there was a continued rise in university applications. This suggests that the overwhelming majority of would-be students regard the idea of university education as something of such value that they would make a future financial sacrifice in order to benefit from it. Given that graduates on average earn about £100,000 more over a lifetime than non-graduates, that has to be a reasonably rational calculation, even setting aside the additional benefits of three years of wonderful parties – or, for those of an anarchist persuasion – "great pleasure in smashing windows".
