- INTRODUCTION - 
        
             I  forget  which  great male thinker once said the only
        party worth living for was "the party of humanity".  Or  was
        it  "dying  for"?  Something like that anyway. I'm better at
        "Remember your humanity  and  forget  the  rest".  That  was
        Bertrand  Russell - unless of course it was Albert Einstein.
        But never mind who said those things. This  essay  is  about
        why, when it comes to nuclear disarmament, they are true.
             It is a vile fact about the power struggles between the
        USA  and the USSR that they are not confined to exchanges of
        military threats, or nuclear ravings, or  other  manoeuvres,
        between  the two super-states and their allied subordinates.
        In fact, these conflicts have their  essential  home  inside
        ordinary,   largely   powerless   and  "unimportant"  people
        everywhere. Far . . .

APPENDIX
        
              JOINT DECLARATION OF THE EUROPEAN PEACE MOVEMENTS
        
           Launched at a 250,000 CND rally, London, June 6th 1982
         
        
             Considering  that  we, of this present generation, hold
        in trust the survival  of  civilisation,  the  prospects  of
        future generations, and the fate of the earth itself.
        
             We accept our trusteeship. We dedicate our lives to the
        cause of peace.
        
             We  reject altogether the use or preparation of nuclear
        weapons or of any weapons of mass extermination.  We  reject
        also  the  arguments  of  "deterrence" or of "balance" which
        justify these weapons and which delay disarmament.
        
             We have lost count of  the  weapons  poised  above  our
        heads and we have lost interest in counting. We refuse them.
        We  call  upon  our friends throughout the world, in East or
        W . . .
