Project Journal Issue No. 21 for MSC 2026
Dear friends of peace,
the new issue of our project journal was completed on time for the Munich Security Conference. The past few months have been politically very turbulent. It was challenging to take the latest geopolitical developments into account. We are confident that we have once again succeeded in publishing an exciting and informative project journal. Here is a small preview:
“… what crazy times are these, in which human security is predominantly seen only in strength, power, superiority in weapons, and in dangerous threat and deterrence potential? Has the concept of “common security” with each other, instead of against each other (Olof Palme), been completely sacrificed to the logic of war? In addition to the editorial (→ p. 1), which advocates for an international peace movement, other contributions also highlight how dangerous military escalation is in Europe and the USA (→ p. 7), but also in Gaza (→ p. 5). In this almost hysterical atmosphere of arms frenzy, where many countries are almost doubling their defense spending, does a voice calling for “non-violence” (→ p. 11) still have a chance to be heard at all? Shouldn’t we all become peace-capable instead of war-capable, to jointly overcome humanity’s existential problems? Fabian Scheidler highlights this urgency in his book “Peace-Capable” (→ p. 15), and therefore it should primarily be discussed in schools, instead of bringing the Bundeswehr into the classroom (→ p. 6). This could also be used to analyze how much our so-called “rules-based order of the West” (→ p. 13) is built on lies and double standards. It remains to be hoped that the peace movement will regain strength to stand up against new intermediate-range missiles (→ p. 14) and the militarization of civil society. Are you with us? Your opinion on this is important to us!”
Don’t miss out on this issue!
