 Advocacy
"A peace
activist is a
political activist
who strives for
peace,
and against
war.
Peace activists are part of the
peace movement.
The role played by peace activists in preventing wars
have been questioned in a paper published by Dr.
Lawrence S Wittner,
in which it was stated that "rather than peace activism
putting an end to war, war puts an end to peace
activism".
A strong inspiration
to many peace activists in recent times was the
Cold War
threat of
nuclear proliferation,
which spawned the
Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.
