Tad Daley Q&A #1: The effect of another nuclear incident

This Q&A session with Tad Daley is made up of eleven question and answer videos. Q&A video #1 is only 3 minutes and 29 seconds long. You can find the other ten videos to the right titled Tad Daley Q&A #2, Tad Daley Q&A #3, etc. Tad Daley, J.D., Ph.D., is the author of APOCALYPSE NEVER: Forging the Path to a Nuclear Weapon-Free World. He currently serves as Director of the Project on Abolishing War at the Center for War/Peace Studies (www.abolishingwar.org). Prior to that, he acted as a Writing Fellow with International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War, the 1985 Nobel Peace Laureate organization. He was educated at Knox College, the University of Illinois, the University of Southampton in England, the RAND/UCLA Center for Soviet Studies and the RAND Graduate School of Policy Studies. He spent several years as a member of the International Policy Department at RAND, where many of the nuclear theories of the Cold War era originally were forged. He has served as a speechwriter and policy advisor to Congressman Dennis Kucinich, Congresswoman Diane Watson, and the late U.S. Senator Alan Cranston. His world vision is perhaps best captured by the late 1995 Nobel Peace laureate Joseph Rotblat, who told Tad, "My short term ambition is to abolish nuclear weapons. My long term ambition is to abolish war itself." About Culture of Peace The Soka Gakkai International-USA (SGI-USA) Culture of Peace Resource Centers in New York, Santa Monica, San Francisco, Chicago, Washington D.C. and Honolulu launched the Culture of Peace Distinguished Speaker Series in 2007 to engage people in a dialogue on the values, attitudes and behaviors that reject violence and inspire creative energy toward the peaceful resolution of conflicts. Lecturers in this series focus on one or more of the 8 action areas defined by the 1999 United Nations Declaration and Program of Action on a Culture of Peace: (1) Fostering a culture of peace through education, (2) Promoting sustainable economic and social development, (3) Promoting respect for all human rights, (4) Ensuring equality between women and men, (5) Fostering democratic participation, (6) Advancing understanding, tolerance and solidarity, (7) Supporting participatory communication and the free flow of information and knowledge and (8) Promoting international peace and security. Select lectures are published annually in the "Voices for the Culture of Peace" book series (http://www.cultureofpeacepress.com/). We hope that this eclectic and thought-provoking series of dialogues will empower viewers with a heightened awareness of the subtle shifts in our attitudes and behaviors that can help attain and sustain a culture of peace and to apply what they have learned in meaningful ways to their families, schools, workplaces and local communities; thereby mainstreaming the values, attitudes and behaviors of the culture of peace.
