I don't know about that. I think that a member of any number of successful nonviolent movements would tend to disagree.
Unless you equate many different types of things that aren't traditionally considered violence (poverty, etc) with violence, which some folks like to do, the two aren't necessarily linked at all. It all depends on how broadly you want to go.
Look at how much power international banking institutions have. As far as i can tell, they don't have their own armies, and would have a difficult time convincing somebody else to provide an army to force developing countries to pay off their debts. So, with no means to commit violence, how do they manage to hold countries to their debts?
