Towards A World Without Wars - Joseph Rotblat
TOWARDS A WORLD WITHOUT WARS. by joseph rotblat. Former President, Pugwash Conferenceon Science and World Affairs, and nobel Peace Prize Laureate, 1995.
http://www.toda.org/publications/peace_policy/p_p_s98/rotblat.html

Extractions: Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, 1995 This lecture will be mainly about humankind and science, which is part of humankind. And since I am a scientist, I'll talk a little bit about myself. Humanity, An Endangered Species I am a man of peace. Of course, you would expect this of a person who has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, but that doesn't necessarily follow. I am also a pacifist. I abhor war. I dislike immensely any violence. But I am not an absolute pacifist. I describe myself as something like a realistic pacifist, though that may sound like an oxymoron. I am not an absolute pacifist, because I do not believe in absolutes. Nature is so immensely rich with infinite variety of possibilities that nothing can be excluded. By the same token, nothing should be impossible. Any concept that seems out of this world can be realized if enough faith and effort are put into it. A world without war is such a concept. The theme of my lecture is to indicate to you that this is a necessary condition for the survival of humankind on this planet. You may have different views about the origin of the human species. You may take the view of the Judeo-Christian Bible that it is the deed of God on the sixth day of creation. Or you may take the other extreme, the view of the rationalists who say that human life is the result of an infinite number of seemingly random changes in the molecular structure of some parts of the body. But whatever view you take, I'm sure you will agree that life is our most precious commodity. We cannot imagine that the whole species can come to an end, least of all by the action of man. Yet, the unimaginable has now become possible.

http://www.livgrad.co.uk/recorder/Sep97/rec10.html

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: Professor Joseph Rotblat, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and Emeritus Professor of Physics, recently lectured on 'Preventing Conflict and Promoting Peace: scientists and responsibility' at the University of Bradford. The lecture was very successful attracting 200 people from the city, the University of Bradford and involved 30 International Scientists from across the world from Asia, Africa and North America, together with experts from the UK. The lecture examined the emerging challenges of promoting security and peace in the early 21st century following September 11, and in particular examined the dilemmas and responsibilities of scientists. Research Director, Dr Owen Greene, from the University's Department of Peace Studies , said: "Professor Joseph Rotblat gave an excellent lecture and was interviewed by Channel 4 News and the Sunday Times. He focused on dangerous challenges of today including the India and Pakistan dispute over Kashmir and the risk of use of nuclear weapons." Professor Rotblat addressed the complex problems of preventing proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, and the relationship between this and efforts to resolve violent transnational and international conflicts. Professor Rotblat was one of the World War II Manhatten project scientists responsible for designing and producing the first atomic bombs. He was the only Manhatten Project scientist who resigned from the project as soon as it became clear that Germany would not be able to produce an atomic bomb and was headed for defeat.

My name is joseph rotblat. In 1995, I received the nobel Prize for Peace alongwith Pugwash for our efforts to rid the world of nuclear weapons.
http://ucnuclearfree.org/articles/020529rotblatletter.htm

Extractions: An Open Letter to the University of California Community Dear Students, Faculty and Staff of the UC Community: My name is Joseph Rotblat. I am 93 years old. I worked as a scientist on the Manhattan Project to create the atomic bomb. I resigned from this project in late 1944 when I realized that the Germans would not succeed in creating their own atomic weapons and therefore the Allied powers would not need these weapons to deter the Germans. Since that time I have worked for a world free of nuclear weapons. In 1955, I was one of 11 signatories of the Russell-Einstein Manifesto warning humanity about growing nuclear dangers. In 1957, I was a founder of the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs. In 1995, I received the Nobel Prize for Peace along with Pugwash for our efforts to rid the world of nuclear weapons. I am writing to ask you to take a great step forward for humanity by disassociating your great University from the oversight and management of the US nuclear weapons laboratories. For more than 50 years, the UC system has provided respectability to these laboratories that carry out research, develop and test nuclear weapons -weapons that could destroy civilization and probably the human species.

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.

Extractions: From October 19-20, 2002, the City of Rome hosted the 3rd World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates. Jonathan Granoff, President of the Global Security Institute, and Senator Douglas Roche, Chairman of the Middle Powers Initiative (a program of GSI) represented the International Peace Bureau, a Nobel Laureate organization. During the conference, Granoff and Roche convened and co-chaired an "Extraordinary Session" of Nobel Peace Laureates to discuss concrete responses that could be taken against the emerging doctrine characterized as Unilateral Militarism. Nobel Laureates took up the issue of an impending war in Iraq, challenges posed by unilateral militarism to the United Nations system, with particular emphasis on the Bush Administration's policies regarding nuclear weapons. Nobel laureates were especially concerned by doctrines relating to testing and building new nuclear weapons, their integration into conventional war-fighting doctrines, and threats of preemption. New Advisors for GSI Nobel Peace Laureates Rigoberta Menchú Tum and Sir Joseph Rotblat accepted invitations to be active members of GSI's Advisory Board.

http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/coldwar/interviews/episode-8/rotblat3.html

Extractions: Continue INT: Excellent. Could you tell me a little bit more about that issuing of it to the press? I believe... was it at the Caxton Hall meeting? (B/g talk) Could you tell me a bit about what the atmosphere was like, and what the media's reaction was to the Manifesto? INT: What was not so much yours, because you came from a European background, but it must have been fascinating watching both Americans and Russian scientists meet, both of whom had been fed copious amounts of propaganda about how each side was out to destroy them. What was their reactions like when they first met? INT: You say that a very important part of Pugwash was the fact that the attendees were coming as individuals and not as government representatives. How did the governments react to Pugwash? INT: Did you ever have any idea in the first Pugwash meetings how important Pugwash would become, and the fact that even today it is still going on? JR: Well, no, the important idea was to establish a contact. This was our main problem at the time, because we felt, if we don't have this contact, then really we are going on a way which is bound to lead to military confrontation and then catastrophe. This was our worry at the time, how to prevent this catastrophe. And we felt, by talking toeach other, as scientists, this is our contribution to establishing some sort of peace in the world. I don't think that we worked for a Nobel Prize at the time. Of course, every scientist always thinks about a NobelPrize, but this is not the way we have been motivated. We have really... our worry was that we are on a very dangerous path, and we must do something to stop this downhill road to the abyss.
