Pazifismus - ein Irrweg?

Couldn't we just say no to war? So far, we have obviously not succeeded. The idea of pacifism, the rejection of any use of violence, emerged remarkably late in human history. Instead of war, pacifism relies on negotiations and diplomacy, sometimes also on passive resistance. Through the peace movement of the 1970s and 1980s, these ideas became popular with a wider public and are still very popular in Germany. Currently, in the wake of the war in Ukraine, many voices can be heard rejecting any military support for the country under attack. However, this is not yet a majority position. Pascal Beucker presents the history, background and prospects for the success of pacifism. Can pacifism be more than a blue-eyed ideal? Can non-violence really help against an aggressor like Putin? Can there be a peaceful world?
