The Waging Peace Series

From 1985 to 2000, the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation published 41 volumes of Waging Peace, an essay series devoted to strengthening the conditions of human interdependence. The ambition of the series was summed up in a statement printed at the beginning of each volume: “Just as peace is more than the absence of war, waging peace is more than supporting arms reductions. In addition, it embraces positive steps toward genuine harmony.” Waging Peace is a library of utopias, philosophical reflections, and policy proposals from some of the greatest minds of the last half century.

The series was dedicated to the late Warren Wells, who, as far as is known, coined the phrase “waging peace.” The Wells family—Warren, his late wife Ethel, and their daughter Marion—have been essential supporters of NAPF.
