TOP OF ISSUE TOP OF SECTION PREVIOUS STORY NEXT STORY Student Pugwash USA has successful event By Nikhil Kamat-Mhamai Campus Life Staff The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the Nobel Peace Prize for 1995, in two equal parts, to Joseph Rotblat and to the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs, for their efforts to diminish the part played by nuclear arms in international politics and in the longer run to eliminate such arms. This year is the fiftieth anniversary of the dropping of two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the fortieth anniversary of the Russell-Einstein Manifesto. The Manifesto laid the foundations for the Pugwash Conferences, which have maintained a high level of activity to this day. Joseph Rotblat was one of the 11 scientists behind the Manifesto, and has since been the most important figure in the Pugwash work. The Conferences are based on the recognition of the responsibility of scientists for their inventions. They have underlined the catastrophic consequences of the use of the new weapons. They have brought together scientists and decision-makers to collaborate across political divides on constructive proposals for reducing the nuclear threat. The Pugwash Conferences were founded in the desire to see all nuclear arms destroyed and, ultimately, in a vision of finding solutions to international disputes other than war.

LIFE Others Killing X Planes Fighter Planes Media in War Win the Peace Bombs With Brains Nuclear Threat Hi-tech Warriors Porton Down Pugwash Bioterrorism Tech Vs Terror Star Wars Science of Secrecy 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.

BUDAPEST - WORLD SCIENCE CAPITAL Budapest (Hungary), June 28 (No.99-142) - A population of some 2,000 science movers and shakers - Nobel laureates, researchers from all the continents and policy makers, notably more than 90 government ministers in charge of science - has assembled in Budapest, turning the city into the world science capital on the occasion of the "World Conference on Science: Science for the 21st Century - a new commitment" (June 26 - July 1). Science players from over 150 countries in Budapest are seeking to define the future course of science and scientific research. They are tackling issues such as: the private and public sectors' respective roles in science funding, maintaining knowledge-sharing while respecting intellectual property rights, the ethical obligations of the scientist to society. While Europe and North America form the largest geographical group of participants, reflecting the unequal distribution of science resources between North and South, all regions of the world are represented and participants include some of the most distinguished names in the various science disciplines, among them Nobel Prize laureates and leading researchers. They include: From Africa, Mali-born astrophysicist Cheick Diarra, one of the leading researchers in the NASA's Pathfinder mission to Mars. Mr Diarra, who is also UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador for Science and Technology, is advocating the pooling of resources in South-South and wider international co-operation "to use our diversity to find efficient and innovative solutions."

57. WISE NC: NOBEL PEACE PRIZE FOR PUGWASH Norwegian Nobel Committee said it awarded the $1 million Nobel peace prize to JosephRotblat and the pugwash conferences on science and world affairs this year http://www.antenna.nl/wise/442/4377.html

published by WISE News Communique on October 27, 1995 Nobel peace prize for Pugwash The Norwegian Nobel Committee said it awarded the $1 million Nobel peace prize to Joseph Rotblat and the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs this year, 50 years after nuclear bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, to encourage the world to now rid itself of the nuclear threat. Joseph Rotblat is the founder of Pugwash. He is a scientist who resigned from the Manhattan Project (to develop nuclear weapons during World War II) and then dedicated his life to campaigning against the nuclear weapons it developed. (442.4377) WISE-Amsterdam - The awarding of the Nobel to Rotblat and Pugwash was unexpected, with the Nobel Committee passing over better-known nominees including former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and the politicians who were crucial in bringing about a ceasefire in Northern Ireland. "It is the committee's hope that the award of the Nobel Peace Prize for 1995 to Rotblat and to Pugwash will encourage world leaders to intensify their efforts to rid the world of nuclear weapons," the Nobel Committee said in its citation. The panel hoped the award would also send a clear message of protest to the French and Chinese governments over their recent nuclear tests. Rotblat, a Polish-born British citizen, was the only scientist to resign from the Manhattan Project. Since leaving the project in 1944, he has campaigned for nuclear disarmament, and until recently also worked at London's St. Bartholomew's Hospital, specializing in nuclear medicine.

59. Cyrus S. Eaton Eaton became the sponsor of the pugwash conferences on science and world affairswhen British philosopher Bertrand Russell encouraged a meeting of scientists http://collections.ic.gc.ca/heirloom_series/volume5/232-235.htm

Cyrus S. Eaton Sowing Seeds for Nobel Peace Prize (1883-1979) The town of Pugwash, Nova Scotia, became a world-famous community because a business tycoon, born there in 1883, volunteered funds and hosted a group of 22 scientists from around the world at his Pugwash summer home in 1957. The host was Cyrus S. Eaton, one of North America’s most successful businessmen, but controversial because of his friendship with Russian and Cuban Communist leaders. Eaton became the sponsor of the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs when British philosopher Bertrand Russell encouraged a meeting of scientists from around the world to speak out on the proliferation of the atomic bomb. Funds were needed to make such a meeting possible. When a proposal to meet in India fell through, Russell had two other options: to accept an offer made by Aristotle Onassis, the Greek shipping magnate, or one by Cyrus Eaton, the Cleveland businessman who had already held a number of conferences at his summer home in Pugwash. Russell chose Eaton’s offer to pay travel expenses and host the event. After a three-day meeting in July 1957 that brought together scientists from the U.S.A., China, Russia, Great Britain, France, and several other countries, the name Pugwash was adopted in the title for future conferences with Eaton readily agreeing to sponsor a second session the following year at Lac Beauport, Quebec.

60. CNN: Peace Prize Winner Surprised At Selection - Oct. 13, 1995 I am overwhelmed at the news, the 86year-old physicist told Reuters at theLondon office of the pugwash conferences on science and world affairs. http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/9510/nobel/

Peace Prize winner surprised at selection October 13, 1995 Web posted at: 8:25 a.m. EDT (1225 GMT) OSLO, Norway (CNN) Joseph Rotblat cried when he heard the news that he and his 38-year-old organization had won the Nobel Peace Prize for 1995. "I am overwhelmed at the news," the 86-year-old physicist told Reuters at the London office of the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs. "I did not really expect it. In recent years the peace prize has really been going to well- known politicians." Not this time. The Nobel Prize Committee sent an open message Friday with its choice for the 1995 prize. "One of the reasons for the prize is a sort of protest against testing of nuclear weapons and nuclear arms in general," said the prize committee's chairman, Francis Sejersted. "This is a message to all the world's nuclear powers." The Polish-born Rotblat, now a British citizen, was one of 11 scientists behind a manifesto published 40 years ago by philosopher Bertrand Russell and scientist Albert Einstein, calling on researchers to take responsibility for their work, particularly those working on the atomic bomb. That manifesto served as the groundwork for the Pugwash Conferences, first convened in 1957 in Pugwash, Nova Scotia, Canada. During Friday's announcement of the prize, the Nobel committee cited the Pugwash Conferences "for their efforts to diminish the part played by nuclear arms in international politics and in the longer run to eliminate such arms."
