Russell-Einstein Manifesto

The Russell-Einstein Manifesto, issued in 1955 by Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein, was a call for peaceful resolution of conflicts and a warning about the dangers of nuclear weapons. It highlighted the destructive power of atomic bombs and urged world leaders and scientists to work together to prevent nuclear war. The manifesto emphasized the moral responsibility of humanity to pursue disarmament and promote peaceful coexistence, recognizing that scientific advancements brought great benefits but also serious risks if used irresponsibly. It remains a historic appeal for global efforts toward peace and safety.
