Leaflets

conscience The newest Desktop Resources leaflet, "Your Way to Peace" is now available. Designed for use in high schools and with youth groups, "Your Way to Peace" is an introduction to issues of war, peace, and conscience. It describes three approaches to war—"Peace through strength," the Just War theory, and pacifism—gives guidance on deciding one's stand on war, and leaves the final decision up to the reader. It includes a list of books for further study and groups for further information.

40¢; 10/$3.50; 100/$30.00

 

nonviolence"Peace Begins with Us" is an introduction to the idea of nonviolence. Written in clear, simple English, it features mini-profiles of world leaders who have succeeded using nonviolent means; brief descriptions of various alternatives to violence; and a list of groups to contact for further information. It is ideal for placement in school and library literature racks, for mailings, or for distribution to young people who are just beginning to learn about nonviolence.
