Criticism

One common argument against pacifism is the possibility of using violence to prevent further acts of violence (and reduce the «net-sum» of violence). This argument hinges on consequentialism: an otherwise morally objectionable action can be justified if it results in a positive outcome.

For example, either violent rebellion, or foreign nations sending in troops to end a dictator’s violent oppression may save millions of lives, even if many thousands died in the war. Those pacifists who base their beliefs on deontological grounds would oppose such violent action.

Others would oppose organized military responses but support individual and small group self-defense against specific attacks if initiated by the dictator’s forces. Pacifists may argue that military action could be justified should it subsequently advance the general cause of peace.

Still more pacifists would argue that a nonviolent reaction may not save lives immediately but would in the long run. The acceptance of violence for any reason makes it easier to use in other situations. Learning and committing to pacifism helps to send a message that violence is, in fact, not the most effective way. It can also help people to think more creatively and find more effective ways to stop violence without more violence.

In light of the common criticism of pacifism as not offering a clear alternative policy, one approach to finding «more effective ways» has been the attempt to develop the idea of «defence by civil resistance», also called «social defence».

There have been some works on this topic, including by Adam Roberts[151] and Gene Sharp.[152] However, no country has adopted this approach as the sole basis of its defence.[153] (For further information and sources see social defence.)

Axis aggression that precipitated World War II has been cited as an argument against pacifism[154]. If these forces had not been challenged and defeated militarily, the argument goes, many more people would have died under their oppressive rule.

Adolf Hitler told the British Foreign Secretary Lord Halifax in 1937 that the British should «shoot Gandhi, and if this doesn’t suffice to reduce them to submission, shoot a dozen leading members of the Congress, and if that doesn’t suffice shoot 200, and so on, as you make it clear that you mean business.»[155]

Adolf Hitler noted in his Second Book: «… Later, the attempt to adapt the living space to increased population turned into unmotivated wars of conquest, which in their very lack of motivation contained the germ of the subsequent reaction.

Pacifism is the answer to it. Pacifism has existed in the world ever since there have been wars whose meaning no longer lay in the conquest of territory for a Folk’s sustenance. Since then it has been war’s eternal companion. It will again disappear as soon as war ceases to be an instrument of booty hungry or power hungry individuals or nations, and as soon as it again becomes the ultimate weapon with which a Folk fights for its daily bread.»[156]

Hermann Göring described, during an interview at the Nuremberg Trials, how denouncing and outlawing pacifism was an important part of the Nazis’ seizure of power: «The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy.

Some commentators on the most nonviolent forms of pacifism, including Jan Narveson, argue that such pacifism is a self-contradictory doctrine. Narveson claims that everyone has rights and corresponding responsibilities not to violate others’ rights.

Since pacifists give up their ability to protect themselves from violation of their right not to be harmed, then other people thus have no corresponding responsibility, thus creating a paradox of rights. Narveson said that «the prevention of infractions of that right is precisely what one has a right to when one has a right at all.

» Narveson then discusses how rational persuasion is a good but often inadequate method of discouraging an aggressor. He considers that everyone has the right to use any means necessary to prevent deprivation of their civil liberties and force could be necessary.[158]Peter Gelderloos criticizes the idea that nonviolence is the only way to fight for a better world.

According to Gelderloos, pacifism as an ideology serves the interests of the state and is hopelessly caught up psychologically with the control schema of patriarchy and white supremacy.[159]

Great britain

Pacifism and revulsion with war were very popular sentiments in 1920s Britain. Novels and poems on the theme of the futility of war and the slaughter of the youth by old fools were published, including, Death of a Hero by Richard Aldington, Erich Remarque’s translated All Quiet on the Western Front and Beverley Nichols’s expose Cry Havoc.

A debate at the University of Oxford in 1933 on the motion ‘one must fight for King and country’ captured the changed mood when the motion was resoundingly defeated. Dick Sheppard established the Peace Pledge Union in 1934, which totally renounced war and aggression.

The idea of collective security was also popular; instead of outright pacifism, the public generally exhibited a determination to stand up to aggression, but preferably with the use of economic sanctions and multilateral negotiations.[54] Many members of the Peace Pledge Union later joined the Bruderhof[55] during its period of residence in the Cotswolds, where Englishmen and Germans, many of whom were Jewish, lived side by side despite local persecution.[56]

The British Labour Party had a strong pacifist wing in the early 1930s, and between 1931 and 1935 it was led by George Lansbury, a Christian pacifist who later chaired the No More War Movement and was president of the PPU. The 1933 annual conference resolved unanimously to «pledge itself to take no part in war».

Researcher Richard Toye writes that «Labour’s official position, however, although based on the aspiration towards a world socialist commonwealth and the outlawing of war, did not imply a renunciation of force under all circumstances, but rather support for the ill-defined concept of ‘collective security’ under the League of Nations.

At the same time, on the party’s left, Stafford Cripps’s small but vocal Socialist League opposed the official policy, on the non-pacifist ground that the League of Nations was ‘nothing but the tool of the satiated imperialist powers’.»[57]

Lansbury was eventually persuaded to resign as Labour leader by the non-pacifist wing of the party and was replaced by Clement Attlee.[58] As the threat from Nazi Germany increased in the 1930s, the Labour Party abandoned its pacifist position and supported rearmament, largely as the result of the efforts of Ernest Bevin and Hugh Dalton, who by 1937 had also persuaded the party to oppose Neville Chamberlain’s policy of appeasement.[59]

The League of Nations attempted to play its role in ensuring world peace in the 1920s and 1930s. However, with the increasingly revisionist and aggressive behaviour of Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy and Imperial Japan, it ultimately failed to maintain such a world order.

Economic sanctions were used against states that committed aggression, such as those against Italy when it invaded Abyssinia, but there was no will on the part of the principal League powers, Britain and France, to subordinate their interests to a multilateral process or to disarm at all themselves.

Modern history

Beginning in the 16th century, the Protestant Reformation gave rise to a variety of new Christian sects, including the historic peace churches. Foremost among them were the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers)

, Amish, Mennonites, Hutterites, and Church of the Brethren. The humanist writer Desiderius Erasmus was one of the most outspoken pacifists of the Renaissance, arguing strongly against warfare in his essays The Praise of Folly (1509)

The Quakers were prominent advocates of pacifism, who as early as 1660 had repudiated violence in all forms and adhered to a strictly pacifist interpretation of Christianity. They stated their beliefs in a declaration to King Charles II:

«We utterly deny all outward wars and strife, and fightings with outward weapons, for any end, or under any pretense whatever; this is our testimony to the whole world. The Spirit of Christ … which leads us into all truth, will never move us to fight and war against any man with outward weapons, neither for the kingdom of Christ, nor for the kingdoms of this world.[29]

Throughout the many 18th century wars in which Great Britain participated, the Quakers maintained a principled commitment not to serve in the army and militia or even to pay the alternative £10 fine.

The English Quaker William Penn, who founded the Province of Pennsylvania, employed an anti-militarist public policy. Unlike residents of many of the colonies, Quakers chose to trade peacefully with the Indians, including for land.

From the 16th to the 18th centuries, a number of thinkers devised plans for an international organisation that would promote peace, and reduce or even eliminate the occurrence of war. These included the French politician Duc de Sully, the philosophers Émeric Crucé and the Abbe de Saint-Pierre, and the English Quakers William Penn and John Bellers.[30][31]

Pacifist ideals emerged from two strands of thought that coalesced at the end of the 18th century. One, rooted in the secular Enlightenment, promoted peace as the rational antidote to the world’s ills, while the other was a part of the evangelical religious revival that had played an important part in the campaign for the abolition of slavery.

Representatives of the former included Jean-Jacques Rousseau, in Extrait du Projet de Paix Perpetuelle de Monsieur l’Abbe Saint-Pierre (1756),[32]Immanuel Kant, in his Thoughts on Perpetual Peace,[33] and Jeremy Bentham who proposed the formation of a peace association in 1789.

Representative of the latter, was William Wilberforce who thought that strict limits should be imposed on British involvement in the French Revolutionary Wars based on Christian ideals of peace and brotherhood. Bohemian Bernard Bolzano taught about the social waste of militarism and the needlessness of war.

During the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, pacifism was not entirely frowned upon throughout Europe. It was considered a political stance against costly capitalist-imperialist wars, a notion particularly popular in the British Liberal Party of the twentieth century.[34] However, during the eras of World War One and especially World War Two, public opinion on the ideology split.

Peace movements

During the period of the Napoleonic Wars, although no formal peace movement was established until the end of hostilities, a significant peace movement animated by universalist ideals did emerge, due to the perception of Britain fighting in a reactionary role and the increasingly visible impact of the war on the welfare of the nation in the form of higher taxation levels and high casualty rates.

Sixteen peace petitions to Parliament were signed by members of the public, anti-war and anti-Pitt demonstrations convened and peace literature was widely published and disseminated.[36]

The first peace movements appeared in 1815–16. In the United States the first such movement was the New York Peace Society, founded in 1815 by the theologian David Low Dodge, and the Massachusetts Peace Society.

It became an active organization, holding regular weekly meetings, and producing literature which was spread as far as Gibraltar and Malta, describing the horrors of war and advocating pacificism on Christian grounds.[37] The London Peace Society (also known as the Society for the Promotion of Permanent and Universal Peace) was formed in 1816 to promote permanent and universal peace by the philanthropistWilliam Allen.

The peace movement began to grow in influence by the mid-nineteenth century.[39] The London Peace Society, under the initiative of American consul Elihu Burritt and the reverend Henry Richard, convened the first International Peace Congress in London in 1843.[40] The congress decided on two aims: the ideal of peaceable arbitration in the affairs of nations and the creation of an international institution to achieve that.

Richard became the secretary of the Peace Society in 1850 on a full-time basis, a position which he would keep for the next 40 years, earning himself a reputation as the ‘Apostle of Peace’. He helped secure one of the earliest victories for the peace movement by securing a commitment from the Great Powers in the Treaty of Paris (1856) at the end of the Crimean War, in favour of arbitration.

After experiencing a recession in support due to the resurgence of militarism during the American Civil War and Crimean War, the movement began to spread across Europe and began to infiltrate the new socialist movements. In 1870, Randal Cremer formed the Workman’s Peace Association in London.

Cremer, alongside the French economist Frédéric Passy was also the founding father of the first international organisation for the arbitration of conflicts in 1889, the Inter-Parliamentary Union. The National Peace Council was founded in after the 17th Universal Peace Congress in London (July August 1908).

An important thinker who contributed to pacifist ideology was Russian writer Leo Tolstoy. In one of his latter works, The Kingdom of God is Within You, Tolstoy provides a detailed history, account and defense of pacifism.

Tolstoy’s work inspired a movement named after him advocating pacifism to arise in Russia and elsewhere.[42] The book was a major early influence on Mahatma Gandhi, and the two engaged in regular correspondence while Gandhi was active in South Africa.[43]

Bertha von Suttner, the first woman to be a Nobel Peace Prize laureate, became a leading figure in the peace movement with the publication of her novel, Die Waffen nieder! («Lay Down Your Arms!») in 1889 and founded an Austrian pacifist organization in 1891.

Пацифизм — информация на портале энциклопедия всемирная история

ПАЦИФИЗМ — идео­ло­гия, по­ли­ти­ка и об­ще­ст­вен­ное дви­же­ние, вы­сту­паю­щие про­тив войн и лю­бо­го ро­да на­си­лия.

Как быть Леди:  Библиотека - Институт Психотерапии и Клинической Психологии "ИПиКП"

Тер­ми­ны «Пацифизм» и «па­ци­фист» (сто­рон­ник Пацифизм) сфор­му­ли­ро­ва­ны в 1901 году груп­пой уча­ст­ни­ков 10-го Все­об­ще­го кон­грес­са ми­ра в Глаз­го и пред­ло­же­ны пре­зи­ден­том Ли­ги ми­ра и сво­бо­ды Э. Ар­но (1864-1921 годы) для обо­зна­че­ния дви­же­ния бор­цов за мир. Идео­ло­гия Пацифизма из­ло­же­на Ар­но в трак­та­те «Код ми­ра» (1901 год).

Пацифизм ос­но­ван на убе­ж­де­нии, что убий­ст­во че­ло­ве­ка че­ло­ве­ком, как и в це­лом на­си­лие в от­но­ше­ни­ях ме­ж­ду людь­ми, есть на­ру­ше­ние ми­ро­во­го по­ряд­ка, зло, пусть да­же и вы­ну­ж­ден­ное. Ис­то­ри­че­ски это убе­ж­де­ние по пре­иму­ще­ст­ву бы­ло свя­за­но с ре­лигиозным соз­на­ни­ем че­ло­ве­ка. Прин­цип от­ка­за от при­чи­не­ния вре­да все­му жи­во­му (ахим­са) ши­ро­ко пред­став­лен в инд. «прак­ти­че­ской фи­ло­со­фии», он по­лу­чил раз­ви­тие у ад­жи­ви­ков, в буд­диз­ме, джай­низ­ме и других. В хри­сти­ан­ском по­ни­ма­нии при­чи­на на­си­лия в ми­ре за­клю­ча­ет­ся в от­па­де­нии че­ло­ве­ка от Бо­га, на­ру­ше­нии Его во­ли и тем са­мым в раз­ру­ше­нии из­на­чаль­но­го по­ряд­ка от­но­ше­ний Бо­га, че­ло­ве­ка и ми­ра. Объ­ек­тив­ный ха­рак­тер пре­бы­ва­ния ми­ра в ис­ка­жён­ном со­стоя­нии де­ла­ет не­воз­мож­ным пол­ное из­бав­ле­ние от на­си­лия до мо­мен­та окон­чательного вос­со­еди­не­ния тво­ре­ния с Бо­гом. Вме­сте с тем на субъ­ект­ном уров­не пре­одо­ле­ние на­си­лия по­ла­га­ет­ся воз­мож­ным и да­же обя­за­тель­ным. Эпо­ха Вет­хо­го За­ве­та бы­ла да­ле­ка от идеа­ла мир­но­го со­су­ще­ст­во­ва­ния как на­ро­дов, так и отдельных лю­дей, тем не ме­нее, на­ря­ду с прин­ци­пом ог­ра­ни­че­ния мес­ти «око за око, зуб за зуб» (Левит 24:19-20), бы­ла да­на за­по­ведь «не убий» (Исход 20:13). Вет­хо­за­вет­ное про­ро­че­ст­во о вре­ме­нах, «ко­гда не под­ни­мет на­род на на­род ме­ча» (Исход 2:4), от­но­сит­ся к пер­спек­ти­ве за пре­де­ла­ми ис­то­рического вре­ме­ни. Но­вый За­вет ис­пол­нен при­зы­ва люб­ви к вра­гам (Матфей 5:43-48, Лука 6:27-28) и Бо­жия бла­го­сло­ве­ния ми­ро­твор­цам (Матфей 5:9). Да­же в ус­ло­ви­ях объ­ек­тив­но су­ще­ст­вую­ще­го на­си­лия в об­ще­ст­ве, по хри­стиа­нскому учению, не сле­дует воз­да­вать «злом за зло», по воз­мож­но­сти быть «в ми­ре со все­ми людь­ми» (Римляне 12:17-18). По­сле­до­ва­тель­ный и бес­ком­про­мисс­ный Пацифизм ха­рак­те­рен для не­ко­то­рых ере­тических дви­же­ний и хри­сти­ан­ских на­прав­ле­ний: ка­та­ры, ад­вен­ти­сты седь­мо­го дня, швей­цар­ские бра­тья, мо­рав­ские бра­тья, гут­тер­ское брат­ст­во, ква­ке­ры, мен­но­ни­ты, ду­хо­бор­цы, мо­ло­ка­не, пя­ти­де­сят­ни­ки, тол­стов­цы и другие.

Фи­лософское ос­мыс­ле­ние Пацифизма име­ет свои ис­то­ки в уче­нии древне-греческих на­тур­фи­ло­со­фов о кос­мо­се как ми­ро­вом по­ряд­ке, гар­мо­нии и рав­но­ве­сии. Пи­фа­гор учил жить в со­гла­сии, тво­рить доб­ро вра­гам, не уби­вать не­вин­ных жи­вот­ных, не на­но­сить вре­да рас­те­ни­ям. Со­стоя­ние ми­ра в Римской им­пе­рии вос­пе­вал Вер­ги­лий. В сто­ической тра­ди­ции идеи Пацифизма раз­ви­ва­ли Ци­це­рон, Се­не­ка, Марк Ав­ре­лий, в позд­ней ан­тич­но­сти — Мак­ро­бий, Бо­эций. В сред­ние ве­ка на па­ци­фи­ст­ские тео­рии оп­ре­де­ляю­щее влия­ние ока­зы­ва­ло хри­сти­ан­ст­во. В эпо­ху Про­све­ще­ния раз­ра­ба­ты­ва­лась идея «веч­но­го ми­ра» (М. де Бетюн Сюл­ли, Ш. Сен-Пьер, Ж.Ж. Рус­со) — сое­ди­не­ние всех ев­ропейских го­су­дар­ств, вклю­чая Рос­сию, в еди­ный со­юз. Сре­ди мыс­ли­те­лей Но­во­го и Но­вей­ше­го вре­ме­ни, раз­ви­вав­ших идеи Пацифизма, — Эразм Рот­тер­дам­ский, Ф. Пас­си, Л.Н. Тол­стой, Б. фон Зут­нер, Ма­хат­ма Ган­ди, М.Л. Кинг. Осо­бой по­пу­ляр­но­стью идеи Пацифизма поль­зо­ва­лись по­сле 1-й ми­ро­вой вой­ны, 1920-е годы из­вест­ны как «эра па­ци­физ­ма» (соз­да­ние Ли­ги На­ций, Кел­ло­га — Бриа­на пакт 1928 года, дви­же­ние за все­об­щее ра­зо­ру­же­ние и тому подобное). Государственные и по­ли­тические дея­те­ли (А. Бри­ан, П. Пен­ле­ве во Фран­ции, Р. Се­сил, О.Чем­бер­лен в Ве­ли­ко­бри­та­нии, Ф.Кел­лог, У. Бо­ра в США и другие) ак­тив­но ис­поль­зо­ва­ли па­ци­фи­ст­скую ри­то­ри­ку для оп­рав­да­ния сво­их дей­ст­вий на ме­ж­ду­народной аре­не (дик­то­ва­лись пре­ж­де все­го ин­те­ре­са­ми их собственных го­су­дарств). В западно- ев­ропейских стра­нах 1920-1930-х годов апел­ля­ция к па­ци­фи­ст­ским на­строе­ни­ям на­се­ле­ния бы­ла важ­ным фак­то­ром и при про­ве­де­нии внутренней по­ли­ти­ки, для ус­пе­ха на вы­бо­рах в пред­ста­вительные ор­га­ны вла­сти.

В Рос­сии в конце XIX — начала XX веков тео­ре­тическую ба­зу Пацифизма раз­ра­ба­ты­ва­ли юри­сты и со­цио­ло­ги М.А. Эн­гель­гардт («Веч­ный мир и ра­зо­ру­же­ние», 1899 год), Ф.Ф. Мар­тенс («Со­вре­мен­ное ме­ж­ду­на­род­ное пра­во ци­ви­ли­зо­ван­ных на­ро­дов», тома 1-2, 1882-1883 годы), Л.А. Ка­ма­ров­ский («Глав­ные мо­мен­ты идеи ми­ра в ис­то­рии», 1895 год), М.А. Тау­бе («Прин­ци­пы ми­ра и пра­ва в ме­ж­ду­на­род­ных столк­но­ве­ни­ях сред­них ве­ков», 1899 год), князь В.В. Те­ни­шев («Веч­ный мир и ме­ж­ду­на­род­ный тре­тей­ский суд», 1909 год) и другие. Российский Пацифизм по­лу­чил государственную под­держ­ку в фор­ме ини­ции­ро­ван­ной Рос­си­ей Ме­ж­ду­народной кон­фе­рен­ции по во­про­су ог­ра­ни­че­ния воо­ру­же­ний и уч­ре­ж­де­ния ме­ж­ду­народного ар­бит­ра­жа (1899 год). В раз­ви­тие этой ини­циа­ти­вы на Га­аг­ских кон­фе­рен­ци­ях ми­ра 1899 и 1907 годов бы­ли при­ня­ты ме­ж­ду­народные кон­вен­ции о за­ко­нах и обы­ча­ях вой­ны, став­шие не­отъ­ем­ле­мой ча­стью норм ме­ж­ду­народного гу­ма­ни­тар­но­го пра­ва. В начале XX века Пацифизм при­нял в Рос­сии фор­му ан­ти­во­ен­но­го дви­же­ния, он имел об­щественную под­держ­ку пре­ж­де все­го в ин­тел­ли­гент­ских кру­гах. Соз­да­ны Санкт-Пе­тербургское и Московское общества ми­ра, Ки­ев­ское общество дру­зей ми­ра (все в 1909 году) и другие. Впер­вые де­ле­га­ция па­ци­фи­стов из Рос­сии при­ня­ла официальное уча­стие в 18-м Все­об­щем кон­грес­се ми­ра в Сток­голь­ме (1910 год), гла­ва российской де­ле­га­ции Па­вел Д. Дол­го­ру­ков был из­бран ви­це-пре­зи­ден­том кон­грес­са. В по­сле­дую­щий ис­то­рический пе­ри­од до 1990-х годов российский Пацифизм как дви­же­ние не имел дос­та­точ­ных по­ли­тических ус­ло­вий для не­за­ви­си­мо­го раз­ви­тия, ус­ту­пил ме­сто дви­же­нию сто­рон­ни­ков ми­ра, на­прав­ляв­ше­му­ся партийной и госсударственной вла­стью.

В современном ми­ре по­ня­тие «Пацифизм» ис­поль­зу­ет­ся для обо­зна­че­ния ми­ро­воз­зренческой и нрав­ственной по­зи­ции, идео­ло­гии об­щественного дви­же­ния. В ка­че­ст­ве ми­ро­воз­зренческой по­зи­ции Пацифизм мо­жет не ог­ра­ни­чи­вать­ся ан­ти­во­ен­ной ус­та­нов­кой, но пред­став­лять различные док­три­ны не­на­си­лия, пас­сив­но­го со­про­тив­ле­ния, мо­раль­но­го со­вер­шен­ст­во­ва­ния, нрав­ст­вен­ной чис­то­ты. В ка­че­ст­ве нравственной по­зи­ции Пацифизм оз­на­ча­ет ин­ди­ви­ду­аль­ный от­каз от на­си­лия и со­уча­стия в нём, в ча­ст­но­сти от­каз от служ­бы в ар­мии и от то­го, что­бы брать в ру­ки ору­жие. В ро­ли идео­ло­гии Пацифизм обос­но­вы­ва­ет не­об­хо­ди­мость и воз­мож­ность ус­та­нов­ле­ния все­об­ще­го ми­ра, ис­поль­зуя взаи­мо­свя­зан­ные прин­ци­пы: аб­со­лют­ной не­до­пус­ти­мо­сти вой­ны, аб­со­лют­но­го за­пре­та на­си­лия или при­ме­не­ния си­лы и аб­со­лют­ной не­при­ем­ле­мо­сти убий­ст­ва. Как об­щественное дви­же­ние Пацифизм пред­по­ла­га­ет ши­ро­кую про­па­ган­ду ми­ро­творческих идей и цен­но­стей, про­ве­де­ние ма­ни­фе­ста­ций в за­щи­ту ми­ра, осу­ж­де­ние гон­ки воо­ру­же­ний, при­зыв к сни­же­нию во­енной ак­тив­но­сти го­су­дарств, ра­то­ва­ние за мир­ное уре­гу­ли­ро­ва­ние ме­ж­ду­народных и внут­ри­го­су­дарственных кон­флик­тов, осуж­де­ние тер­ро­риз­ма меж­ду­на­род­но­го. К совркмкнным па­ци­фи­ст­ским ор­га­ни­за­ци­ям от­но­сят­ся: Ме­ж­ду­народное бю­ро ми­ра (ос­но­ва­но в 1891-1892 годы), Все­мир­ный со­вет ми­ра (1949-1950 годы), Па­гу­ош­ское дви­же­ние, Ме­ж­ду­народная кри­зис­ная груп­па (ос­но­ва­на в 1995 году) и другие. Они тес­но взаи­мо­дей­ст­ву­ют с ме­ж­ду­народными и меж­пра­ви­тельственными ор­га­ни­за­ция­ми [ООН, ЮНЕСКО, ЮНКТАД (Кон­фе­рен­ция ООН по тор­гов­ле и раз­ви­тию), Дви­же­ние не­при­сое­ди­не­ния и другие].
