Book By: Michael Von Der Schulenberg
This brochure, “No more wars! The Charter of the United Nations,” serves as a timely reminder of the foundational principles established 80 years ago to safeguard humanity’s future. In an era where military escalation often overshadows diplomatic solutions, it revisits the UN Charter’s profound commitment to preserving peace, human dignity, and the peaceful resolution of conflicts. The collection critiques how geopolitical realities have drifted from these ideals, particularly in Western contexts, and calls for a urgent return to international law as the sole path toward sustainable global security.
Through six insightful articles, the brochure examines critical issues—from the wars in Ukraine and Gaza to Germany’s evolving foreign policy—all underscoring the necessity of dialogue over confrontation. It boldly challenges the notion that armaments ensure peace, arguing instead that mutual understanding and adherence to the UN Charter are indispensable for survival in an age of existential threats. This work is essential reading for advocates of peace who seek to champion diplomacy amid rising tides of militarism.
