It assesses social movement dynamics and the mechanisms through which movements gain influence. The purpose is to mine campaign experiences from the past to develop actio…
Forum on Scholarship and Peace Activism
Significantly enhanced by the debate about climate change, the relationship between knowledge production and activism, as well as forms of research that bridge activism and engagement, has been discussed intensely in disciplines that address contemporary societies.1 In peace history, the relationship between activism and knowledge formation has always been an issue. While a comparative openness to activism has served as a reason for some to dismi…
Lessons From Recent Peace Movements
The author reviews and analyzes organizing experiences in peace campaigns from more than 50 years of personal organizing. The article identifies examples of conflicts within movements about strategies and tactics for attention and influence, arguing that there is no single best approach for affecting policy.

Peaceful Superpower

Russia's nuclear saber rattling in the war against Ukraine has increased the risk of nuclear weapons use and the danger of nuclear war. It also undermines global nonproliferation norms. Seeking a negotiated end to the war in Ukraine is an urgent priority for reducing the nuclear danger. Global security depends on renewing the diplomatic agenda for reducing and eliminating nuclear weapons

Drones and the Future of Armed Conflict
During the past decade, drones have become central to American military strategy. When coupled with access to accurate information, drones make it possible to deploy lethal force across borders while keeping one's own soldiers out of harm's way.

At the same time, because drones eliminate some of the traditional constraints on the use of f…

Containing Iraq
THE Bush administration's primary justification for going to war against Iraq last year was the threat posed by Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction (WMD) programs. But almost as soon as U.S. forces took Baghdad, it became clear that this fear was based on bad intelligence and faulty assumptions. Since then, the failure to find WMD in Iraq has caused a furor. Sympathetic analysts argue that Washington had no way of know ing how serious th…

In April 1995, the world's nations will gather in New York to determine the future of nuclear weapons policy. In so doing they will also determine the prospects for human survival. At issue is the fate of the Nuclear Non‐Proliferation Treaty, the NPT. Will nuclear weapons continue to spread around the world and lead some day to atomic war, or can the danger of nuclear proliferation be contained? The specific question before the 162 nations that h…
