The Russell–Einstein Manifesto

Prevent nuclear war and preserve human survival.

A public scientific appeal for changing how conflict is handled; it is not a disarmament treaty.

The implementation question

What makes cooperation possible across hostile political systems?

A question for inquiry, not a finding about the authors’ intentions.
