Along with Cortright, the signatories to the appeal were: Oscar Arias (former President of Costa Rica, Nobel Peace Laureate); Richard Barnet (writer and foreign affairs); Admiral Eugene Carroll (US Navy, retired); Jimmy Carter (former US President); Alan Cranston (Chair of the State of the World Forum, former US Senator); Jonathan Dean (Union of Concerned Scientists, former senior US arms control negotiator); Daniel Ellsberg (former US National Security Advisor); Mikhail Gorbachev (former Soviet President); Morton Halperin (former senior US arms control official); Mark Hatfield (former US Senator); Douglas Roche (former Canadian Ambassador for Disarmament); Joseph Rotblat (Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs, Nobel Peace Laureate); Marcus Ruskin; Bishop Walter R. Sullivan. "The nuclear tests in South Asia have jarred the world into a new awareness of nuclear danger. They have demonstrated unmistakably the peril of nuclear proliferation and the weakness of international measures of control. They have also cast harsh new light on the persistence of the arsenals of the United States, Russia, China, Great Britain and France, who jointly possess some 35,000 nuclear weapons. These two main components of the nuclear danger - proliferation on the on hand, and the remaining cold war arsenals on the other - can no longer be considered in isolation. They must be addressed together.

    Extractions: onlineethics.org The Online Ethics Center for Engineering and Science Student Pugwash USA The mission of Student Pugwash USA is to promote the socially responsible application of science and technology in the 21st century. As a student organization, Student Pugwash USA encourages young people to examine the ethical, social, and global implications of science and technology, and to make these concerns a guiding focus of their academic and professional endeavors. Student Pugwash USA offers educational programs that are interdisciplinary, inter generational, and international in scope, reflecting a belief that all citizens share a responsibility to ensure that science and technology are utilized for the benefit of humankind. Student Pugwash USA is guided by a respect for diverse perspectives and, as such, does not adopt advocacy positions on substantive issues. Student Pugwash USA Pledge Written by a student, a postdoctoral Mechanical Engineering fellow at the University of California at Berkley, the Student Pugwash USA pledge favorably passed the review of the Senior Committee. The language of the pledge is a compromise. Originally, the chapter proposed using the SPUSA pledge given on cards which were carried to Oslo for the autumn 1995 Nobel Peace Prize ceremonies. Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs The purpose of the Pugwash Conferences is to bring together, from around the world, influential scholars and public figures concerned with reducing the danger of armed conflict and seeking cooperative solutions for global problems. Meeting in private as individuals, rather than as representatives of governments or institutions, Pugwash participants exchange views and explore alternative approaches to arms control and tension reduction with a combination of candour, continuity, and flexibility seldom attained in official East-West and North-South discussions and negotiations. Yet, because of the stature of many of the Pugwash participants in their own countries (as, for example, science and arms-control advisers to governments, key figures in academies of science and universities, and former and future holders of high government office), insights from Pugwash discussions tend to penetrate quickly to the appropriate levels of official policy-making.

    Extractions: News By Karen Young Kreeger Author: Karen Young Kreeger Sidebar Plugging into Pugwash It would be reasonable to assume that last month's awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs and Pugwash president and cofounder Joseph Rotblat represents something of a glorious swan song. The conferences and Polish-born physicist Rotblat, 87, were honored by the Nobel Committee last month in Oslo, Norway, for their nearly 40-year effort "to diminish the part played by nuclear arms in international politics" ( K.Y. Kreeger, The Scientist , Nov. 13, 1995, page 1 But as Rotblat and the group's many thousands of members and admirers point out emphatically, their work is hardly over. The challenges to peace and disarmament in the post-Cold War world are different-and in many ways more difficult-they maintain. Although nuclear disarmament remains Pugwash's main concern, the subjects tackled at annual conferences and workshops have branched out in a number of directions. "The range of issues and topics has expanded greatly, particularly with the considerable interest that people have in environmental issues and in some of the problems of developing countries," says United States Pugwash Committee cochairwoman Judith Reppy. She is an associate professor in the science and technology studies department and assistant director of the peace studies program at Cornell University.

Nobel Peace Prize Signals New Beginning For Pugwash UNFINISHED BUSINESS: The awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize to the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs and their cofounder, Joseph Rotblat, represents not the culmination of the nuclear-disarmament group's efforts, its members and admirers say, but a call to face new-and more difficult-challenges to peace in the post-Cold War world.

    Extractions: Joseph Rotblat came to The University of Liverpool from Poland in 1939 to work as a Research Fellow with Professor (later Sir) James Chadwick. By that time he had envisaged the concept of the atomic bomb, which he worked on with Professor Chadwick, using the cyclotron in the basement of the George Holt Building. Subsequently, in 1943, he went on to Los Alamos to work on the Manhattan Project until the end of 1944. Throughout the early post-war years, however, he became increasingly preoccupied with the impact of nuclear weaponry on mankind and in 1957, having signed the 1955 Manifesto initiated by Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein, he became deeply involved in the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World affairs which campaigned for the elimination of nuclear arms. He was for seventeen years Secretary General of the Pugwash Conferences and is now President.

    Extractions: La Jolla, California The Pugwash Council, meeting during the 52nd Pugwash Conference in La Jolla, California, expresses its concern over accelerating threats to global sustainability and security that will require intensified multinational cooperation and the strengthening of international institutions to safeguard human security. The most immediate of these is the prospect of military action against Iraq, whether carried out unilaterally by the United States or in coalition with other countries, without a UN mandate. A military conflict in Iraq would surely cause widespread human suffering and could lead to political destabilization across the entire region. The Pugwash Council calls on the United Nations and all countries to exhaust every possible option short of military force to compel Iraq's compliance with UN Security Council resolutions to allow the return of weapons inspectors in order to certify the absence of efforts to develop weapons of mass destruction. It also calls on the US and other governments not to take military action against Iraq without a UN mandate. More broadly, the shock to the international system caused by the events of September 11, 2001 still reverberates around the world. While much of the coordinated international action to combat organized terrorist groups is both necessary and urgent, the Pugwash Council deplores the fact that the campaign against 'terrorism' has become an excuse for increased defense budgets and military deployments, the curtailment of civil liberties, and support for authoritarian regimes on the part of some governments and organizations.

    Extractions: ITHACA, N.Y. The associate director of Cornell University's Peace Studies Program was in Norway last month for the presentation of the 1995 Nobel Peace Prize, which went to London scientist Joseph Rotblat and the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs, the organization over which Rotblat presides. Cornell's Judith Reppy attended the Nobel ceremonies in Oslo City Hall on Dec. 10 as a co-chair of the U.S. Pugwash Committee and member of the organization's international governing body. Pugwash was founded 38 years ago in Pugwash, Nova Scotia, to work toward elimination of nuclear weapons. Joining Reppy at the ceremonies which included a banquet and choral performance were Harvard University's Steve Miller, fellow co-chair of Pugwash's U.S. committee; John Holdren, chair of its executive council; and Richard Garwin, a long-standing Pugwash member and A.D. White Professor-at- Large at Cornell. "It was a very happy occasion," Reppy said of the event. "People were thrilled that Pugwash had been honored in this important way and glad to celebrate it with close friends. The Peace Prize is the only one awarded by the Norwegian branch of the Nobel Institute, so the gathering was smaller than the one in Stockholm and, from all reports, more fun. There was a certain amount of pomp the king and queen attended the official ceremonies and the concert, and there was literally a red carpet for them to walk on but the atmosphere was generally friendly and informal." Besides her post with the Peace Studies Program where she also has served as director, a rotating position Reppy is an associate professor in Cornell's Department of Science and Technology Studies. A specialist in issues relating to military spending and the economy, she received a Ph.D. in economics from Cornell in 1972 and has been affiliated with the Peace Studies Program since 1973.

Recently, Pugwash and Professor Joseph Rotblat were awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace. As part of the commemoration of this honor, Student Pugwash has initiated a campaign to collect commitments from professionals and students in scientific fields, as well as concerned citizens worldwide. They are merely asking for names of those who would commit to ethical use of science and active exercise of personal responsibility to increase world peace.
