If we are to teach real peace in this world,

IS THE MOST DESTRUCTIVE FORCE ON THE PLANET
33
t
In the 20th Century
34
there were 175,000,000 Conflict
Deaths (Military civilian casualties, genocide,
tyranny, and man-made famine) 4.5 of World
Population.
35
Since World War II there have been 20,000,000 Bat
tle Deaths in 25 International Wars 127 Civil
Wars.
36
What will the 21st Century bring?
37
Future perfect storm conflicts could easily be
more horrific.
38
Tensions between global power centers are rising.
39
Societys high -tech infrastructure is extremely
vulnerable.
40
Weapons of mass destruction are becoming widely
available.
41
Low-tech warfare can still produce catastrophic
and even genocidal results.
42
Destructive conflict dynamics also
43
prevent us from meeting other critical
challenges.
44
We cant CONTROL AIDS
45
without dealing with conflicts over sex, sex
education, and religious belief.
46
We cant deal with GLOBAL WARMING
47
without finding ways to overcome our addiction
to fossil fuels and energy industry resistance.
48
We cant fight POVERTY
49
without addressing the debate over who is
responsible and what can and should be done?
50
Unfortunately, our research and
development-oriented society
51
invests almost nothing in the development
of better ways of handling conflict.
52
Instead, we sacrifice millions of lives and spend
countless billions
53
playing the same old destructive game.
54
We must find realistic ways
55
to change the game.
56
We need to start by applying what we know
57
...and finding out what we dont.
58
Success will require a high degree of
specialization
59
with large numbers of individuals and
organizations
60
each making important and very different
contributions.
61
Individuals from many institutions, cultures,
disciplines
62
will need to focus on the challenges that lie
within their areas of expertise.
63
People are very reluctant to change the ways in
which they approach conflict.
64
Success will not come easily, or quickly.
65
But we will never succeed if we dont start
taking these challenges seriously.
66
The challenge of working toward peace is as
important as Global Warming. It deserves the same
level of our attention.
