For poor countries, it increases poverty,unemployment, and destitution. It also strengthens dictatorial tendenciesin politics and acts against democratic values.

For that, we need a concerted effort toencourage disarmament. This newvolume provides reflections and insights fromleading public figures and activists who oppose military expenditure in anyform. Many of the contributions to this volume were presented as speeches atthe 'Disarm!For a Climate of Peace' meetingheld in Berlin in 2016, organized by the International Peace Bureau.
