The Antiwar Movement

The Antiwar Movement consists of people who oppose military conflicts and advocate for peaceful resolutions. It often arises during or before wars, driven by concerns about human casualties, economic costs, or political consequences. Activists organize protests, campaigns, and discussions to influence public opinion and government policies. The movement aims to promote diplomacy over violence, raise awareness about the impacts of war, and sometimes challenge government decisions to engage in military action. Historically, it has played a significant role in shaping war policies, reflecting public dissent and the desire for peaceful solutions.
