The history of the traditions of nonviolence in America beginning with William Penn's Holy Experiment is discussed briefly and is related to the United Nations’declaration of a Decade of Education for a Culture of Peace and Nonviolence. Current …
A Journey into the Future
The inspiration for this essay came to me after a daylong workshop on Imagining a Nonviolent World which I offered for prisoners at the Massachusetts Correctional Institution at Norfolk on a wintry Saturday morning. This type of imaging workshop first evolved in the late 1970s, as I began to realize that we peace activists, working to bring about a nonviolent world without war, really had no idea how a world in which armies had disappeared would …
Building a Culture of Peace
If anybody had told me back in the 1960s, when I first got seriously involved in doing research on what women were really doing in the world, that in the year 2000 we would have to hold a session like this, I would not have believed them. Back in the 1960s we were beginning to uncover data that showed the amount of the basic work of the planet that was being done by women. Eighty percent of the farming was being done by women and anything that ha…

A new chance for human peaceableness
The millennial optimism being generated among nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in the global civil society by the advent of the year 2000, and the United Nations Declaration of a Year and Decade of Education for a Culture of Peace and Nonviolence for the Children of the World, opens the possibility of a paradigm shift from dominance to mutualism in both interpersonal and interstate relations. Multiple year 2000 peace initiatives by NGOs prese…
Children and the Politics of Culture
The bodies and minds of children - and the very space of children - are under assault. This is the message that we receive from daily news headlines about violence, sexual abuse, exploitation and neglect of children and from a proliferation of books in recent years representing the domain of contemporary childhood as threatened, invaded, polluted and stolen by adults. Through a series of essays that explore the global dimensions of children at ri…

Feminist Inventions in the Art of Peacemaking a Century Overview
After differentiating between the social and humanist feminism of the pnsuffrage womens movement (primarily concerned with the evils of war, colonialism, and capitalism run rampant) and the better known equity feminism to which the suflage movement gave rise, this study focuses on the lesser known but continuously vigorous activities of transnational womens movements for peace and social justice. The importance of womens capacities for holistic s…

Elise Boulding offers a comprehensive and fascinating inventory of women's contributions to history over time and presents many invaluable models which can assist in relating history from a much-needed women's perspect…

The Old and New Transnationalism
The concept of axial ages, when civilizations are exploring new terrains, interacting in a sustained way with strangers, and imaging the other and better, is used to trace the development of transnationalism through the ages. The problem of asymmetric contact between colonizers and colonized, historically and in the present, limits the two-way dialogue and learning processes that give rise to great periods of civilization flowering. Twentieth cen…

Building a Global Civic Culture
Image and Action in Peace Building
That images of the future motivate behavior in the present is a theory with both socio‐historical and psychological evidence. Due to the difficulty of generating positive images of the future in the nuclear age, in contrast to the Utopian imagery of earlier ages, an experimental workshop was developed by Boulding and Ziegler to help people imagine positive futures—specifically, to image a future world without weapons. The workshop procedures are …
The challenge of imaging peace in wartime
Women and the Social Costs of Economic Development
Focus On
The gender gap is older than Lysistrata. As far back as we have historical records, we have evidence that women were less enthusiastic about war than men, and more concerned with nurture: the provision of food, shelter, clothing and healing to children and men. Nevertheless, for complex reasons relating to the interdependence of women and men, women cooperated with war. Their anti-war ’votes ’ rarely counted in councils of state.’ In the last qua…

Peace Research
When scholars committed to peace and conflict research first began consciously separating themselves from the older discipline of international relations, particularly during the period of explosive development of new institutions and working groups in the late fifties and early sixties, much time was spent trying to figure out the logical basis for an essentially intuitive revolt against the IR Establishment. Intuitions of a new way of thinking …

World Welfare Measurement as Social Action
The author sees the measurement of world welfare as social action because in the course of measurement our ideas of the world change, leading, hopefully, to the initiation of changes in the world itself. She is therefore interested in evolving indicators not for system states but for system processes, of which four form the core: participation (in the process of shaping the conditions of life), production (of food, goods, energy, information, and…

The Measurement of Cultural Potentials for Transnationalism
Of the two major models for maintaining peace in the international system, the integrative (or associative, in Galtung's terms) and the balance-of-power (or dissociative in Galtung's terms), the integrative model has been winning out in recent years in terms of research emphasis. The use of the integrative model involves a study both of the 'tentative process' of forming links between territorial units, and of the identification of existing linka…

A Disarmed World
One of the major handicaps to scholars, activists and would-be policy makers associated with the post-World War II peace research and peace action movements has been the inability to construct coherent and believable images of a post military industrial United States society. Even at the height of the economics of disarmament studies in the 1960s the most that economists could demonstrate was that disarmament could take place without severe econo…
