Mustard
gas and Napalm, submarines and B-52s, A-bombs and Agent Orange, landmines
and Star Wars: emblems of human genius and tools of global destructiveness,
weapons have profoundly shaped the history, politics, and consciousness of
the last century.
During
2004-2005, Colgate’s Center for Ethics and World Societies will focus on the
theme of “Weapons and War.” A year-long series of public lectures, exhibits,
films, courses and research projects will explore the meanings, effects, and
ethics of weapons and war in the world today. |
