From Hiroshima and Nagasaki to Western and Alternative Globalization

Abstract

30 Aug 2024 – This paper, written by coauthors from the Gandhian Global Harmony Association (GGHA), commemorates the 79th anniversary of the tragic actions of civilians that occurred in the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (HaN). These cities were the first to experience the devastating and terrifying effects of US nuclear attacks, marking a dark moment in history. For nearly eight decades, the West and its “nuclear alliance” of 32 NATO countries have perpetuated the threat of global nuclear catastrophe, leading to the potential of a “nuclear winter” that could impact the entire world. In order for humanity to survive in this nuclear age, a paradigm shift for change is necessary. The launch of an alternative globalization of peace science is crucial to this transformation. This science offers a universal and verifiable framework for the global community, promoting peace, justifiable harmony, prosperity, an equitable society, and sustainable development. By embracing this paradigm, nations can move away from conflict and toward a future of lasting and justifiable peace, as envisioned by Kantian concept of “perpetual peace”, Gandhian “Non-violence movement” and Galtung’s “conflict transformation by peaceful means”. This shift is essential to avoid a cycle of fragile truce amidst ongoing informal-formal wars.

1. HaN: The Nuclear Criminal Civilization Birth and its Globalization

HaN is the symbol of a deadly and criminal nuclear civilization. It was born in August 1945 and has since thrived, fueling, and escalating the nuclear arms race with top priority budgets for 79 years It shows no sign of letting go disregarding or suppressing all fundamental peaceful and scientific alternatives. This symbol is presented in Figure 1 showcasing all the objective parameters of this civilization’s emergence: source, process, location, timing, and the scale of historical nuclear terror and genocide.

Fig. 1. Hiroshima/Nagasaki Symbol

The criminal nature of nuclear civilization and the falsehood of so-called “nuclear deterrence” are exposed in the monograph by the famous lawyer Francis Boyle. “The nuclear age was born from the original sins of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9, 1945. The atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were crimes against humanity and war crimes…” [1]. The nuclear terror of HaN is the criminal creation of the USA, and the West as a whole, originating from Hitler in 1939 in the “German Nuclear Program“, which was provided with all necessary resources [Wiki] for racist, Nazi purposes. Therefore, the Western nuclear civilization that emerged from it is the criminal Western “nuclear age” and a criminal “suicidal civilization” [2 & 3]. This compelled other countries and civilizations of humanity, to respond with nuclear weapons for self-preservation and security against the existential Western threat, sparking a deadly, suicidal, and ecocidal global race that persists to this day.

Since the time of HaN, nuclear civilization has been marked by the ominous sign of its suicidal globalization, leading to an ongoing and accelerating nuclear arms race. This includes unlimited “modernization” and expansion in both genocidal potential power and the number of countries involved. This trajectory ultimately dooms this criminal civilization and all of humanity to an inevitable nuclear Armageddon and Auschwitz.

The potential for genocide in this civilization has reached an extreme level of risk surpassing 99%, as indicated by the symbolic “Doomsday Clock” set by American nuclear scientists [4]. This is accompanied by an intensification of military, psychological, and spiritual conflicts in areas like Gaza and Ukraine serving as a prelude to nuclear genocide in a new and potential world war. This dangerous situation was amplified by the protest self-immolation of US soldier, Aaron Bushnell, in front of the Israeli embassy in Washington on February 25, 2024, at 13:00 [5].

Today, nuclear civilization is at the peak of global genocide, a path first set by Adolf Hitler. The diligent students of genocide from the USA and NATO have followed in his footsteps for nearly 80 years. Their training in genocide of about 40 nations in the years after World War II with conventional weapons resulted in the deaths of 20 to 30 million civilians [6, 7 & 8]. Currently, the US and NATO continue to commit genocide against civilians in the Gaza Strip, Ukraine, and around the world. In 2023, there were 183 armed conflicts worldwide, according to Bloomberg [9]. The frantic nuclear arms race initiated by the US and NATO naturally led to increased production of these weapons in countries that were targeted to be the next victims after HaN in plans to “wipe them off the map” [10]. These countries have done everything to resist Western nuclear terror and avoid becoming victims of its crimes: the USSR, Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, India, and Pakistan. One of the latest acts in this criminal race was the suicidal decision of the West to invest 1.2 trillion dollars in the “modernization of nuclear weapons” by 2030, “capable of killing up to 90% of humanity” with the involvement of Australia, Japan, the Republic of Korea, and New Zealand in the new nuclear bloc AUKUS [11].

The globalization of nuclear civilization and its tool – nuclear weapons – is in complete contradiction to all norms of international law, ultimately destroying and rejecting it. “… Nuclear weapons have never been beneficial instruments of state policy, but rather have always constituted illegitimate instrumentalities of internationally lawless and criminal behavior first of all. » [1]. The design, research, testing, production, manufacture, -, transportation, deployment, installation, maintenance, storage, stockpiling, sale, and purchase of nuclear weapons, along with threat to use them and all their essential components are criminal under well-established principles of international law. Thus, government decision-makers in all nuclear weapons states with command responsibility for their nuclear weapons establishments are subject to personal criminal responsibility under the Nuremberg Principles for this criminal practice of nuclear deterrence and terrorism that they impose on all states and peoples of the international community. Four components of the threat to use nuclear weapons that are particularly reprehensible from an international law perspective: counter-ethnic targeting; counter-city targeting; first-strike weapons and contingency plans; and the first-use of nuclear weapons even to repel a conventional attack.”[1] “… Humankind must abolish nuclear weapons before nuclear weapons abolish humankind… as doctrine known as “nuclear deterrence,” which is truly a euphemism for “nuclear terrorism” [Ibid].

It is crucial to differentiate between Western nuclear aggressors who use nuclear weapons to dictate over objectionable states, and other countries that develop nuclear weapons for defense against nuclear aggressors. If humanity initially allowed one aggressor to create and use nuclear weapons, then what right does it have to deprive other countries of the right to adequate, nuclear defense, as the USSR did, in response to US aggressive plans to “erase it with a map of nuclear weapons” [10]?. It is immoral to equate the aggressor and its victims.

The NATO Washington Declaration on July 10, 2024 once again confirms the criminal nature of this nuclear alliance. “ As long as nuclear weapons exist, NATO will remain a nuclear alliance… NATO remains committed to taking all necessary steps to ensure the credibility, effectiveness, safety, and security of the Alliance’s nuclear deterrence mission, including by modernizing its nuclear capabilities, strengthening its nuclear planning capability, and adapting as necessary” [12].

Our general assessment of the “golden billion” criminal Western civilization is outlined in our “Anti-NATO Manifesto” with colleagues [13].

For almost 80 years, the nuclear civilization, imposed by force and the threat of force by the West on humanity, has become a turning point in its history. Humanity will either end its existence, or radically change its strategic future towards planetary and scientific “perpetual peace” according to Kant [14] in all spheres of society, Gandhi’s nonviolence, and Galtung’s conflict transformation by peaceful means, as well as in all countries and institutions, including international law, as a common normative bridge to it. For this fateful turn, humanity needs to master the fundamental verified Peace Science, which can become its common mental base and a nonviolent instrument acceptable to all nations for the eradication of nuclear weapons as the West’s “Absolute Evil” [15]. The possibility of its eradication on a scientific basis was first considered by the GGHA in its collective “Anti-Nuclear Manifesto” of 46 coauthors from 26 countries with the participation of four Nobel Peace Laureates in 2020 [16].

2. Hiroshima and Nagasaki from the American Political Kitchen Inside in 1945

The American political kitchen of 1945, where the criminal strategic decision to destroy the civilian population of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was made in detailed in various works [8, 17, 18, 19, 20 & 21], from which we will highlight the most important and characteristic attributes.

1. The first attribute is the lie of the main official motive for the HaN atomic bombing that it was allegedly necessary to “stop the war” and that HaN had “military bases”, the destruction of which allegedly “prevented the death of up to half a million American soldiers”. All sources confirm that Japan was ready to surrender in order to end the war and there were no military bases in HaN, so there was no military need for their atomic bombing [Ibid].
2. The true reason for the atomic terror of HaN was the USA’s desire to establish its world hegemony. “The intentional targeting of civilian women and children in a highly populated urban area was intended to create the maximum psychological impact on the minds of the Japanese, the Russians, and the world.” [8] “Why did they commit such a crime? Well, more than anything, they wanted to show Russia the new weapon the United States possessed. They not only wanted to show Russia, but also to proclaim to the world that the United States would not hesitate to use any means to protect and guard its interests!” [Ibid].

Another source states, “In fact, the goal was clear: it was not just to destroy buildings but to instantly kill an unprecedented number of people,” in order to “send a message” to the Soviet Union that the United States now had a monopoly on nuclear weapons and would henceforth dominate the postwar world. To achieve this, almost half a million Japanese civilians had to die, including those who later became victims of the effects of the bombs; radiation [18]. This sentiment is echoed in all sources.

3. The immorality and barbarity of the HaN bombings are truly shocking. “Only the utter inhumanity and brutal ruthlessness of man can commit such crimes against civilians in any country! The crime exceeds all limits of barbarity when one realizes the entire tragedy could have been avoided!” [8].

The immorality of the criminal decision to bomb the innocent inhabitants of Hiroshima and Nagasaki is revealed by the hypocritical detail of its satanic blasphemy. “It was utter, satanic blasphemy, when the first atomic bomb was called Trinity, the holiest name in all religions… It was blasphemy, when an army chaplain blessed the Hiroshima bomb with holy water. He even blessed the Nagasaki bomb, after he had seen the casualties produced by the Hiroshima bomb, a few days earlier” [21]. Hiroshima and Nagasaki became an atheistic desecration of all religions and of a nuclear civilization doomed by God to nuclear suicide unless an alternative paradigm is born within it.

The only bright and highly spiritual event in this vile political kitchen is when “Theodore Hall, a 19-year-old American Los Alamos scientist, the youngest physicist o­n the Manhattan Project and a Soviet spy, handed complete plans for constructing the “Fat Man” plutonium bomb” to an American spy courier working for the Soviet Union [18].

4. The extreme cruelty and immorality of America’s militaristic foreign policy are revealed by President Truman’s decision to exterminate hundreds of thousands of civilians in HaN in order to maintain US global dominance and intimidate the USSR. He became the second state-sanctioned mass murderer after Hitler, now known as the “atomic butcher” and a perpetual criminal against humanity in history for ordering the HaN atomic bombings, which had no military justification. His actions will forever tarnish his legacy with a shameful “Herostratus glory” of Western “satanic absolute evil” depicted in a posthumous portrait showing two nuclear explosions and the devastating aftermath of the Hiroshima bombing which instantly killed 80 thousand children, women, and elderly people in Figure 2.

Fig. 2. “Atomic butcher” Truman and his fruit

Truman continued the legacy of Hitler’s gas ovens in the “death camps” such as Auschwitz with sophistication and brilliance. This was done as means of furthering the racist ideology outlined in “Mein Kampf”, which will mark its 100th anniversary in 2025. This innovative Western policy has been globalizing genocidal HaN practices for 79 years, ultimately in the official policy of the “NATO nuclear alliance” which includes 32 European countries [12].

3. Globalization of HaN in Numbers for 79 Years: 1945 – 2024

The best illustration of the HaN Western globalization scale over 79 years is the map in Figure 3, created by self-critical Western scientists from the FAS [22].

Figure 3. Estimated Global Nuclear Warheads Inventories, 2024

Based on this map and additional sources, we have constructed a table HaN estimating the scale of Western nuclear globalization over 79 years. Why “estimated”? The authors rightly point out, “The exact number of nuclear weapons in each country’s possession is a closely held national secret, so the estimates presented here come with significant uncertainty. Most nuclear-armed states provide essentially no information about the sizes of their nuclear stockpiles” [Ibid].

Another, important perspective, in contrast to the double standards of mainstream media, is that “the dangers of nuclear war are not a subject of debate and analysis by the mainstream media. Public opinion is carefully misled…  Nuclear weapons are portrayed as peace-making bombs” [17].

Despite the inevitable margin of error, the data from sources provide a general HaN overview of the trend unclear globalization over 79 years and the “constant growth of the number of nuclear warheads  towards the inevitable collapse of nuclear civilization in the global Hiroshima and Nagasaki context. This globalization is illustrated in the table in Figure 4.

Abbreviations:

A few strokes on the table.

The modern “modeling results generally confirm the conclusions of simpler models from the 1980s that a full-scale nuclear conflict between Russia and the United States would lead to a “nuclear winter…” The “nuclear winter” hypothesis, which arose in a tense political situation, showed that the consequences of a nuclear war have not been sufficiently studied and are little considered in the decision-making process regarding the use of nuclear weapons… [The] inconsistency of the assertion that “the presence of nuclear weapons by two antagonists increases their restraint in the use of military force” has been proven at the distant approaches to the nuclear threshold.… Narrowing of strategic choice and short-term thinking in crisis situations cannot guarantee rational decision-making on the issue of using nuclear weapons. Justification of such a decision by national rivalry or the ideology of confrontation cannot be justified” [24].

“It has long been known that a major nuclear war could destroy modern ci1ilization and kill most of humanity… This report summarizes the latest scientific work, which shows that a so-called “limited” or “regional” nuclear war would be neither limited nor regional. On the contrary, it would be a planetary-scale event. In fact, it would be far more dangerous than previously understood. A war that detonated less than 1/20th of the world’s nuclear weapons would still crash the climate, global food supply chains and likely public order. Famines and unrest would kill hundreds of millions, perhaps even billions…Using less than 3% of the world’s nuclear weapons, a nuclear war between India and Pakistan could kill up to every third person on earth [~2,7 billions]”[25].

Potentially, there could be almost 10,000 times more victims HaN than in the Holocaust, a 1,000,000% increase. This is the supposed scale of HaN Western globalization today, stemming from only 3% of the world’s nuclear weapons. In more severe scenarios of “regional” nuclear war, considered by the author, the damage to humanity becomes even more devastating [Ibid].

Conclusions:

1. 1.  The nuclear civilization of humanity is Western in its origin, center, and main driving force of the “golden billion” with its “nuclear alliance” NATO. This alliance has ensured the HaN globalization to a potential planetary nuclear winter with its inevitable probability over 99% for the past 79 years [4].
   2. This civilization was imposed on humanity through the use of force and the threat “nuclear weapons absolute evil”. The race for nuclear weapons has involved practically all countries in some way, making the new HaN danger universal for all nations. The nuclear civilization is signing its own death warrant with its global HaN threat, which is more than 99% ready for launch today.
   3. In a global nuclear war with the HaN billion-fold scaling of HaN in this civilization, humanity will be thrown back in its evolution by tens or hundreds of thousands of years to a stage of savagery and paleoanthrope. The remaining survivors will be doomed to radioactive extinction for many centuries, similar to the Chernobyl disaster zone.
   4. The history of nuclear civilization, spinning 79 years has revealed the increasing militarism of the West and NATO, despite some impressive achievements. This militarism has capacity to not only destroy itself and also most of humanity.
   5. Militarism has emerged as the “Achilles heel” of nuclear civilization, particularly for its “founding father” the West and NATO. For the past 79 years, it has failed to foster of a common, positive approach to science, and culture of peace, dismissing such efforts as “madness, crazy, dissidence and chimera”.
   6. The cognitive and ideological limitations imposed by militarism have prevented the West from creating a fundamental and verifiable scientific alternative to the inevitable nuclear suicide of its civilization.
   7. Militarism is a pathological attribute of social nature that is aimed at death rather than life. When combined with humanity’s holistic ignorance and impotence, it becomes an insurmountable source of eternal cognitive and ideological confrontation.
   8. Nuclear civilization will mark the final chapter in humanity’s history, crowning and completing a multi-thousand-year period of violent civilizations. The primary instrument of violence, weapons, has reached a level of self-destruction with nuclear weapons, pushing humanity to its planetary nuclear suicide ceiling. This is incompatible with life and our future.

4. The Nuclear Civilization Mysterious Paradoxes and Antinomies

How and why in this prosperous civilization of the “golden billion,” for 79 years of its existence, with all its brilliant achievements in each of its parts- branches, corporations, cities, and countries, with all their striving for the best, but as a whole for humanity, – objectively, against the will of all its parts, a general suicidal-genocidal result of the potential planetary HaN, prepared by 99%, was obtained? In the history of this civilization, there are practically equivalent testimonies of both its life and its death, determining the objective antinomy of its existence for 79 years. Its general situation is characterized by the well-known aphorism: “we wanted the best, but it turned out as always“, which, when decoded for this civilization, means: all its parts – branches, cities, and countries – wanted to live better, but as a whole, for everyone together, it turns out to be death, the end of life. We constantly hear the call to “make the world better“, but in fact we are moving it into the abyss. How can this be?

There is not enough space in a short article to resolve the philosophical paradox and macrosociological cognitive antinomy of “to be or not to be?” within humanity’s nuclear civilization. Our brief conclusion and answer to this question is as follows.

The nuclear civilization understands its individual components well: branches, corporations, cities, and countries. It has a strong command of them in its specific disciplinary organizations, sciences, politics, and diplomacy. However, it lacks knowledge of their inherent and eternal systemic-structural integrity and does not possess objective macrosociological laws that are unified and common to all parts and nations of humanity. Its historical knowledge and thinking have reached the substantial, systemic-structural understanding of the integrity of its parts.

For 79 years, there has been a limitation imposed by the sectoral and disciplinary focus on specific functions of different parts, as well as by partial and false ideologies that seek to justify the advantage and exclusivity of sectors, classes, parties, nations, or states. This limitation and fragmentation of knowledge and thinking within this civilization, as well as in previous ones, leads to an ongoing conflict between social elements that lack knowledge and understanding of a unified systemic-structural integrity. This conflict results in universal negative consequences, including the potential for a suicidal nuclear genocide of humanity.

Below is a brief explanation of key moments in the cognitive antinomy of nuclear civilization on the path towards a holistic, systemic-structural, and scientific resolution.

5. Einstein’s Cognitive Law: The Insolubility of the Nuclear Weapons Problem in Nuclear Civilization

For 79 years, Western nuclear civilization has been engulfed in the convulsions and chaos of uncontrolled violence. The globalization of HaN is institutionalized in all social spheres through various branches of militaristic institutions. This globalization of HaN alienates the civilization from the social principles of Kant’s “perpetual peace”, suppresses all fundamental peaceful alternatives, and strips away its only immunity for survival through peacemaking. Consequently, the civilization is doomed to inevitable nuclear suicide.

The criminal nuclear civilization initiated by the West, has effectively dismantled the key institution of international law that established fundamental norms in Nuremberg and beyond. These norms regulated the limitation and prohibition of genocidal nuclear weapons as crimes against humanity [1; 2: 3]. However, the actual collapse of international law was not solely due to ongoing Western militarism over the past 79 years, but also to the cognitive peacemaking shortcomings of traditional law. Traditional law lacks fundamental scientific, objectivity and universal recognition by all peoples and governments without exception.

The West’s complete militarism and its inability to make peace define the law of “the eradication and insolubility of nuclear weapons, which are considered absolute evil in nuclear civilization”. This law has been confirmed by the entire history and characteristics of this civilization for 79 years, as briefly outlined above. If the militarism of this civilization is exemplified by the HaN globalization, then its inability to make peace was defined by Albert Einstein at its inception 70 years ago in his holistic cognitive imperative. In his definition, he emphasizes the rational nature of homo sapiens in a society where everything begins and ends with thinking, including nuclear weapons and their civilization. According to Einstein, the cognitive imperative of nuclear civilization is formulated as follows: “the significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them [therefore] we shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if humanity is to survive” [26].

We can assume that, in 79 years of its nuclear civilization, the West has been unable to understand and embrace “substantially new thinking,”. It seems that the West is unwilling and unable to live in any other way than through militarism, which ultimately leads to nuclear suicide. Or is it the other way around? By condemning itself to extinction through militarism, the West fails grasp and accepts “substantially new thinking,” preventing the possibility of transitioning to a fundamentally new, peaceful way of life that excludes militarism?

Only time will reveal the truth of this dilemma. However, one thing is certain: the destruction of nuclear weapons and the overcoming of a nuclear suicidal civilization require more than just traditional thinking: it demands a shift to a “substantially new” way of thinking.

The absolute evil of nuclear weapons is not eradicated by their planetary proliferation in the HaN era of globalization. Instead, it diminishes both national and global security. The more they are produced, the less secure we are at both the national and global levels. This evil is a result of narrow, disciplinary and fragmented thinking, which can only be overcome by embracing “substantially new thinking“. The key question is what this new thinking looks like, and what social forces drive it?  Throughout written history, humanity has developed rational insights and ideas about this complex, large-scale, and eternal nature over the last 3-4 millennia that must be separated and integrated.

The conscious and purposeful task of separating, verifying, and integrating true grains of “substantially new thinking” in global macrosociological Peace Sceince development was established and addressed in the GGHA for almost 20 years since its inception on February 15, 2005. During this time, the process of development by over 700 coauthors from more than 50 countries in the GGHA has been documented in numerous books, articles, and peacemaking projects [27].  The first of these should be recognized as our fundamental book “Global Peace Science” coauthored by 74 individuals from 34 countries in 2016 [28]. Naturally, its development is an ongoing process, which has only reached the initial stage in a minimal capacity at the GGHA volunteer academy, defined by us as “one percent“. However, as the saying goes, “the spool may be small, but valuable“, indicating unlimited potential for growth on this journey. What is the essence of its understanding today?

6. Peace Science: Its Substantial, Spheral Thinking and Its Institutionalization as the Common Way Out from Nuclear Civilization’s Genocidal Deadlock

The fundamental and verifiable macrosociological Peace Science, necessary and acceptable to all nations, was born within the nuclear civilization, despite and independently of it. It is based on the integration of key peacemaking and scientific achievements of the past. These include the discoveries of nonviolent varnas/spherons of humanity by Mahatma Gandhi, the noosphere of Vernadsky, Chardin, and Leroy, and the four necessary and sufficient societal resources of PIOT (below) Bertalanffy within the framework of humanity’s sphere. This involves, “substantially new thinking” for understanding and implementing Kant’s “perpetual peace“. Its most compressed expression over the decades today is the following engram in Figure 5 with brief definitions. Peace Science represents humanity’s interpretation of Kant’s “perpetual peace“, through a spheral lens, offering a fundamentally new way of thinking.

Fig. 5. Peace Science Engram

Peace Science has progressed through three historical stages of development. 1. The first stage is  Indian, which began with Mahatma Gandhi’s discovery of humanity’s spherons in 1927, known as “Gandhian“. 2. The second stage is Russian, which started with the development of spheral macrosociology (spheral approach and tetrasociology) in 1976. And 3. The third stage is the International stage, which commenced with the establishment of the international peacemaking GGHA in 2005, representing the informal institutionalization of the “substantially new thinking” in global civil society. These stages and their accomplishments are outlined in a comprehensive list of 1,500 publications, books, and projects [29, 28 & 27], along with various historical sources. In the most recent stage, over the past 20 years, more than 700 coauthors from over 50 countries, including Indian President Abdul Kalam and five Nobel Peace Laureates, have contributed to the advancement of Peace Science, leading to its modern form and publication in 1-12 languages [Ibid].

Today, the holistic outcome of Peace Science’s integrative nature is showcased in the diagram above. It illustrates the transdisciplinary genome of humanity’s societal structure at various levels beginning with the individual and the family, represented by the 16 constant spheres of society. These spheres embody the sociological laws that govern human social existence within a consistent framework providing a harmonious foundation for the transient historical changes that occur throughout stages of sociogenesis. [13, etc.]

Peace Science has been verified by world statistics and is accessible for verification within two hours for every literate person over the age of 10 who knows arithmetic and has access to a computer [30].

Peace Science develops and equips itself, along with its spheral, “substantially new thinking,” with appropriate new tools of spheral statistics and its digital technology of Spheral Artificial Intelligence (SAI) [31]. This is constructed within the system-spheral architecture, logic, and structure of humanity’s societal genome as shown in Fig.5. Its information content is divided into key segments: holistic, constant spheral knowledge that is accessible to humans and partial, changeable disciplinary knowledge that is inaccessible to humans as a whole due to the vast amount of big data.

In other words, it can be summarized by the well-known saying: “To Human/God – God’s things, and to machine/Caesar – Caesar’s things“, which ensures the harmonization of humans and “AI super-intelligence“, maintaining control and governance functions for humans, while assigning machines an auxiliary, instrumental role. This structure eliminates the fear of “machines dominating over humans” and becoming slaves to robots, as humans will never relinquish their social spheral logic of “substantially new thinking“, maintaining constant control over it as their highest intellectual property.

Peace Science, based on scientific truth, is essential, universal, acceptable, and everlasting for all nations and humanity as a whole. It must be recognized and understood through the promotion of a culture, mindset, and education focused on peace. In order to combat the violent nuclear civilization of “nuclear weapons absolute evil“, which is powerfully institutionalized in all four vital spheres of society, Peace Science, and its spheral concept of “substantially new thinking” must be integrated into all spheres of society globally and within each individual country. Through this global institutionalization in the humanity’s sphere objective logic, presented in the engram leads to the evolutionary nonviolent overcoming of the nuclear civilization. This, in turn, leads to the birth of a harmonious, spheral civilization within the nuclear one.

A harmonious and peaceful global community approach can replace military institutions of the nuclear civilization in all spheres, while preserving all the positive spheres, such as safe nuclear energy for peaceful purposes in building a new, non-violent civilization.

The primary peacemaking institution in each state should be a political and diplomatic “Department of Peace” within the government orgsphere, proposed by Benjamin Rush as a counterpart to the “Department of Defense/War” in the United States.. However, its militaristic nature has prevented its establishment despite 11 failed attempts to pass a bill in Congress over the span of 230 years.. This once again highlights the USA’s deep-rooted militarism, which has consistently prioritized conflict over peace throughout its history. After 230 out of 248 years marked by war, the US must recognize its alliance on other countries and their peace science to break free from its destructive nuclear civilization.

Unfortunately, throughout history, there has never been a state leader who was able to recognize the global need for Peace Science, as former Indian President Abdul Kalam did in 2012. He recognized it as essential “for the peace and prosperity of all nations on planet Earth” [32]. However, no leader has been able to move beyond mere words about peace and into practical, organizational institutionalization in all spheres of society. This process could begin with the establishment of a “Department of Peace.”

In the infosphere, rathe then having multiple military research institutes, there is a proposal for a similar institution called the “Academy of Peace and Accelerated Development“, for the BRICS plus countries [33]. This academy would be modelled after the independent “China Academy of Social Sciences” established by Deng Xiaoping, as well as the British and Pontifical Academies of Social Sciences. Naturally, this institutionalization should also incorporate and uphold all the positive experiences and accomplishments of military science that can contribute to peacebuilding.

In the sociosphere, rather than having multiple military educational academies, universities, and schools, there should be a Peace Science system that emphasizes essential peacemaking education. This system should start at the secondary school level and be incorporated into all civil education universities, while still including important spheres of military education that contribute to peace. The GGHA has formulated a roster more than ten educational projects over the span of nearly 20 years [27].

In the technosphere, within the economy, a similar institution is already present in all civil public production. This production simply needs to be separated from the military-industrial complex, while retaining positive elements necessary for peace. The key innovation of Peace Science in economic institutionalization lies in the spheral fractal organization of social production and governance at all levels. This organization ensures efficiency and significant increases in labor productivity. The “economic modernization” of Deng Xiaoping, which led to China’s unprecedented economic growth of over 15 percent annually for three decades, remains a unique and unsolved achievement [34 & 35]. Peace Science allows for the identification and separation of spheral surplus value at all levels of social production, making the peace economy highly attractive and profitable for businesses [36].

This outline represents institutionalization of Peace Science in its long evolutionary process of globalization, spanning at least half a century. Throughout this process, Peace Science will systematically replace the globalization of the HaN nuclear civilization in all spheres, while incorporating and preserving its beneficial spheres for peacebuilding.

Only through a similar evolutionary and revolutionary process, guided by a single spheral logic of Peace Science institutional globalization, but diverse in its local cultural and national manifestations, can be the genocidal nuclear civilization of HaN globalization by non-violently displaced and replaced by a harmonious civilization of a spheral multipolar future. This vision emerged at the beginning of our century [Ibid].

7. The Spheral Bridges to the Multipolar Future: Harmonious Civilization in Transition Period

The great historical transition from a nuclear to a harmonious civilization will take at least five to six decades, involving the changing of 2-3 generations of humanity. This transition began with the conscious design and construction of necessary bridges and tools in every sphere of human life. Many rational elements needed for this transition were discovered and prepared long ago, waiting for their integration into the Peace Science of the new civilization. The cognitive superiority of this science lies in its social nature characterized by a spheral, “substantial new manner of thinking“. This holistic and transdisciplinary approach, liberates traditional, partial, disciplinary, and sectoral thinking from its limitations and harmfulness, while still acknowledging its advantages and achievements.

Only through the framework of transdisciplinary, spheral thinking can these advantages and achievements be preserved and harmoniously integrated into the social whole, without exposing it to the risks of self-destruction, as seen in a nuclear civilization. Without a similar fundamental shift in thinking, there cannot be an equally profound change in civilization that guarantees global “perpetual peace” as the highest and unconditional security for all nations, along with their prosperity in sustainable historical development.

Only Peace Science and its comprehensive, spherical thinking have the capacity to ensure that all people can collaborate to build a future multipolar civilization in harmony for many decades. This approach avoids confrontation in all sectors and national realms, preventing conflicts through common, harmonious, and effective preventive solutions, similar to a harmonious family dynamic.

Peace Science plays a crucial role in creating innovative tools and revitalizing traditional pathways for moving away from the nuclear civilization towards a harmonious future civilization. The main tools and strategies have been outlined above with a focus on the most relevant and practical ones for today.

 Renewal of international law is essential. Law and peace are inherently interlinked, as are their respective disciplines. Law plays a crucial role in maintaining peace, and special international laws are necessary in the realm of organization. For the past 79 years, no international law, separate from Peace Science, has been effective in halting the spread of the HaN “absolute evil” HaN globalization. The only solution lies in international laws grounded in this science with the foundational principles articulated by the brilliant Roman lawyer Gaius in his “Institutes” of Roman law in the second century AD [37]. Gaius systematic presentation of Roman private law encompassing both civil and praetorian spheres in his Institutes,  is guided by the principle: “Omne autem jus, quo utimur, vel ad personas pertinet vel ad res vel ad actiones” (“All law that we use relates either to persons, or to things, or to claims”).

This key holistic principle of law expresses three spheral social resources that are always and everywhere regulated by law people/persons, things, and claims. The latter defines the organization of relations between the former.  Over nearly two thousand years since Gaius, law has not only deepened and become more detailed in the relevant spheres, but has also expanded to include the sphere of information in copyright, publishing and similar segments of law. Therefore, law as a whole, much like international law, is actually based on the same spheral pillars of societal resources of PIOT, as outlined in Peace Science [Ibid].

The globalization of Peace Science institutions as norms of international law for the future harmonious civilization extends to family law [38 & 39]. It includes the constitutional right to peaceful resolution of territorial conflicts based on legal condominium between interested countries, such as Israel and Palestine [40]. Additionally, it encompasses the UN’s right to transform the global governance structure to ensure global peace and harmony in international relations [41 & 42].

Peace Science displaces disharmony, wars and the militarism that breeds them. Militarism, driven by the nuclear civilization, has escalated to the “absolute evil” of total genocide, posing a major threat to world security, particularly for the USA [43]. The concept of ​​the global danger of militarism for the future of humanity, especially for the USA is further supported by fundamental economic and social justifications [44].

What, other than Peace Science and its institutionalization, can provide humanity with a common, objectively necessary, and universally acceptable path out of a suicidal nuclear civilization?
