The Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs
is a world-wide network of scientists that aims to raise awareness of the ethical issues that science must confront. It was set up in the 1950s by some of the most prominent scientists of their day, many of whom were involved in the American Atom Bomb project. They were bound together by the Russell-Einstein Manifesto , but the group is still very active today. In 1995 Joseph Rotblat (Co-founder of Pugwash) and Pugwash received the Nobel Peace Prize in equal parts for their efforts to diminish the part played by nuclear arms in international politics and, in the longer run, to eliminate such arms. About Student Pugwash:
The Student Pugwash Society in Cambridge is one of the many student branches of Pugwash . It was established in June 2000.
Student Pugwash encourages young people to examine the ethical, social and global implications of science and technology, and to make these concerns a guiding focus of their academic and professional endeavours.

Vol. 52, No. 2 EDITOR'S NOTE
Shackling the genie
And on page 52, you'll find excerpts from a new report issued by the Henry L. Stimson Center, a Washington-based think tank. Drafted by a hard-nosed group (including Andrew Goodpaster, a former NATO commander, and Paul Nitze, the quintessential Washington insider), it offers a blueprint for achieving a nuclear-weapon-free world, but with a peculiar twist. As insurance, the nuclear powers would dismantle all their nuclear weapons, while retaining some nuclear-weapon components under international safeguards.
Does that fit the classic definition of a nuclear-weapon-free world? Well, no. But it's an intriguing idea. For decades, the arms-control point of view has suggested that a nuclear-weapon-free world would be dangerously unstable. Meanwhile, nuclear abolitionists insist that the nuclear-weapon world is already unstable, and it is likely to become more so unless real progress toward nuclear disarmament is made. Getting rid of ready-to-use weapons while retaining safeguarded components might be just another unworkable idea. Or it might become the basis of a middle-of-the-road compromise that could help reinvigorate the nuclear disarmament effort. The nuclear-weapons genie can't be popped back into the bottle. But perhaps it can be, year by year, ever more tightly shackled.

Reflections
World Summit on Nobel Peace Laureates
By Senator Douglas Roche, O.C.
Home
In This Issue Archive Français ... Links
Article The view from the balcony of the Campidoglio, overlooking the ruins of the Roman Forum, provides a good perspective on the war culture of the modern age. Not even the might of the Roman Empire could prevent its collapse; yet, the human spirit soared again and again through the ages to create the vibrancy of today's Rome.
The Campidoglio provided the setting for a remarkable gathering from 18 to 20 October 2002 of Nobel Peace laureates to consider the principal challenges of our time: widespread war, violence, terrorism, poverty, water and the ecological crisis. The laureates sought solutions leading to a new world order emphasizing peace, humanity and equity.
At the foot of the monument "Manforpeace" (symbol of the Summits of Nobel Peace Laureates), by Franco Scepi, and in the presence of the 18 Nobel Prize winners participating in the third World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates, actor and film director Roberto Benigni (Oscar Prize winner) receives a reproductive sculpture of the monument, as a token of his film's message of peace. From left to right: Walter Veltroni, Mayor of Rome; Cristiano Grandi, Secretary-General of the Gorbachev Foundation; Mikhail Gorbachev; Franco Scepi, artist and author; Roberto Benigni; Rigoberta Menchú; Marzio Dallagiovanna, President of the Gorbachev Foundation; and Rita Levi Montalcini, Nobel laureate for Medicine.
Though the topics of the meeting were weighty indeed, it opened on a light note with the presentation of the "Man of Peace" prize to Italian actor-director Roberto Benigni who, seizing the baton, conducted a children's choir to the delight of the astonished singers. It was this moment that perhaps best captured the hope that animated the meeting.

Student Pugwash USA is a new campus student organization open to all students, faculty, and staff.
Student Pugwash USA is the U.S. student affiliate of the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs, recipients of the 1995 Nobel Peace Prize. The mission of Student Pugwash USA is to promote the socially responsible application of science and technology. We are interested in engaging all students, scientists and non-scientists alike, in an extended dialogue on issues at the intersection of science and society. Recent discussion topics have included nanotechnology and nanomedicine, terrorism and weapons of mass destruction, access, education and the future of science, and genetics, biotechnology, and social responsibility.
Additionally, Student Pugwash USA promotes a sort of Hippocratic oath for scientists through a unique and powerful voluntary pledge campaign. The Pledge states, "I promise to work for a better world, where science and technology are used in socially responsible ways. I will not use my education for any purpose intended to harm human beings or the environment. Throughout my career, I will consider the ethical implications of my work before I take action. While the demands placed upon me may be great, I sign this declaration because I recognize that individual responsibility is the first step on the path to peace."

Technology Supports the Arts: WPI Student Helps Create Museum Web Site FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE/Apr. 1, 1999
Contact: WPI Media Relations WORCESTER, Mass. - Although Worcester Polytechnic Institute junior Eric Tapley is still in the midst of his college studies, he can already teach others a few things. The Jaffrey, N.H. native has spent the last term designing a Web site for the renowned Worcester Art Museum. The results of that work debuted March 19 at http://www.worcesterart.org/ Tapley's involvement began a year ago when museum administrators called WPI for help in redesigning its Web site. WPI's Amy L. Marr suggested Tapley. "I put Eric on the project and they liked what he did so much, they offered to hire him for the summer," said Marr, the university's Web coordinator. Tapley began to divide his time between WPI and the museum, with the cooperative venture cropping up this year. "Eric currently works full-time at the museum on his co-op, and puts in 15 hours a week for my office," Marr said. "He's a busy guy! This summer, he'll work full-time for me and put in a few hours a week for the museum. His duties consist of Web design, instruction and computer support."

The Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs bring together, from around the world, influential scholars and public figures concerned with reducing the danger of armed conflict and seeking cooperative solutions for global problems. The American Academy sponsors the US Pugwash Committee, which plays a major role in helping to set the agenda of the international Conferences. Topics for recent Pugwash workshops have ranged from medical research in Cuba to nuclear stability to the changing landscape for humanitarian intervention. Meeting in private as individuals, rather than as representatives of governments or institutions, Pugwash participants exchange views and explore means of reducing tension and alternative approaches to arms control with a combination of candor, continuity, and flexibility seldom attained in official East-West and North-South discussions and negotiations.

about this page Born in Warsaw in 1908, Joseph Rotblat has had an incredible career spanning nuclear, radiation and medical physics, and international affairs. He worked on the Manhattan Atomic Bomb project during the second world war and then uniquely, quit the project a few months before the war ended when it became clear that Germany would not be able to develop nuclear weapons of its own for use against the allies. He later worked on medical radiation physics and co-founded the Pugwash organisation, a series of conferences focussing on science and world affairs. In 1995 Pugwash and Rotblat were jointly awarded the Nobel peace prize for their efforts to diminish the part played by nuclear arms in international politics and, in the longer run, to eliminate such arms. He is still extremely active in politics and world affairs, as well as the work of Pugwash. These clips form part of an extended archive of interviews developed by Vega.

About the Pledge Sign the Pledge Nobel Peace Laureate Supports the Pledge Organize to Promote the Pledge In 1995 Professor Joseph Rotblat and the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs won the Nobel Peace Prize for their work on nuclear disarmament. In his Peace Prize acceptance speech, and on many other occasions, Professor Rotblat has pleaded with young people to consider the social and ethical implications of their work. His pleas even before the Nobel were the inspiration for the creation of the Student Pugwash USA Pledge, and he has been an ardent supporter of the Pledge Campaign over the years.
"The time has come to formulate guidelines for the ethical conduct of scientists, perhaps in the form of a voluntary Hippocratic Oath. This would be particularly valuable for young scientists when they embark on a scientific career. The US Student Pugwash Group has taken up this idea - and that is very heartening."

PROFESSOR Joseph Rotblat, 1995 winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, will give a lecture Pugwash and the Nuclear Issue, on Tuesday, 11 February at 18.00, in Lecture Theatre 1, Blackett Laboratory, department of physics, South Kensington campus. David Windisch, Chair of ICU Student Pugwash, writes: "While the global political context has changed during the years since the first Pugwash Conference on Science and World Affairs in 1957, the movement's main purpose is still the same - to bring together scientists and students from around the world to discuss the ethical and political issues science must face. "Apart from the main concern about nuclear arms, issues such as the elimination of armed conflicts, or the environment, have also moved onto the agenda of recent Pugwash Conferences. "Professor Rotblat is, as were Albert Einstein and Bertrand Russell, one of the scientists who inaugurated the movement in 1955. Born in Poland in 1908, he was one of the first scientists realising the potential of nuclear fission at the outbreak of the Second World War.

'In Praise of Science's 'Idealistic Tendencies.' The Toronto Star , February 13, 1997.
The following is excerpted from an address on "Using the power of science," by Nobel laureate John Polanyi, a professor of Chemistry a the University of Toronto. It was delivered last week to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Alfred Nobel left the bulk of his fortune to endow some prizes. He was an explosives manufacturer whose global business had been vastly successful. He would have fitted in at the World Economic Forum. How impressive, then, to discover what it was in science that Nobel most valued. In his will, he stipulated that his prizes be awarded for work exhibiting (as the Swedish text put it) idealisk rigtning Of the 2,000 businessmen, politicians and scientists gathered at the World Economic Forum, how many would claim to value science, principally, for its "idealistic tendencies?" Few. I shall, nonetheless, argue that Nobel was right in his evaluation. Science has, of course, benefited us materially. It has lengthened our lives. It has enriched our existence by teaching us about ourselves. But its greatest gift is the ideals that lie at the heart of its success. The ideals of science are to be found in the shared commitment of scientists to truth. All else, such as personal ambition or parochial loyalty, are secondary. The truth of a scientific proposition is not judged by scientists according to the race, religion, nationality, class, color or gender of the individual who advances it. It is this respect for the truth that makes a science a civilized and civilizing pursuit.

About this site
Kate Roach Februrary 2002 Pugwash is a very unusual kind of organisation. It is an affiliation of individuals devoted to encouraging the use science for the good of humanity. A list of Pugwash members reads like a 'who's who' of scientists and policy-makers. Yet the organisation remains relatively anonymous and never allows the media into its meetings. What is Pugwash? Nothing to do with the captain of that dubious 1950s cartoon crew. Pugwash is an independent organisation made up of members from all over the globe. Their mission is to reduce the dangers of armed conflict and seek peaceful solutions to global problems. They meet as individuals, never as representatives of governments or institutions, to debate such issues as arms control and conflict reduction. And they always meet in private. For four decades, Pugwash has run private conferences in which prominent individuals debate topics of deep concern to them on which they are not necessarily experts. Pugwash is content to influence governments and policy-makers through the back door. The status of many participants is such that insights from their discussions tend to penetrate quickly to high levels of policy-making. Beginnings On 23 December 1954, philosopher Bertrand Russell broadcast a speech on British radio entitled 'Man's Peril'. In it, he warned of the threat to humanity from the development of nuclear weapons. Following his speech, he wrote up a manifesto intended for signature by scientists from various countries. The first to be approached was Albert Einstein, who signed the manifesto two days before his death. Of the other ten signatories, eight were Nobel Prize winners.

Proceedings of the Forty-Seventh Pugwash Conference on Science and World Affairs

Lillehammer, Norway 1 - 7 August 1997
edited by Joseph Rotblat (President of the Pugwash Conference)
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 cooperative 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 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. The Pugwash Movement received the 1995 Nobel Prize for 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.
