The Pugwash Conferences bring together, from around the world, scientists, other scholars, and individuals experienced in government, diplomacy, and the military, and concerned with reducing the danger of armed conflict and seeking co-operative solutions to global problems lying at the intersection of science and world affairs. The Pugwash Movement is an expression of the awareness of the social and moral duty of scientists to help to prevent and to overcome the actual and potential harmful effects of scientific and technological innovations, and to promote the use of science and technology for the purpose of peace. In this volume, scientists and scholars from more than 30 countries write on a broad range of issues, including the abolition of nuclear weapons; the implementation and strengthening of the regimes outlawing chemical and biological weapons; conventional disarmament; creation of a world without war; environmental sustainability and security; an integrated approach to development and security; creation of security in the Asia-Pacific region and in the Middle East; education for world citizenship; and the social responsibility of scientists.
