Just in time for its 50th anniversary, Peace Action brings together reflections on the largest and most influential peace organization in history. At the same time, this book provides a unique resource for understanding popular protest against nuclear weapons and war in the modern era. It illuminates the local, national, and international role of Peace Action today and outlines Peace Action s strategies for the future, including ongoing protest against the war in Iraq and a negotiated resolution of nuclear issues in Iran and North Korea.Read Katrina vanden Heuvel's blog on \"Peace Action\" at http: \/\/www.thenation.com\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGlen Harold Stassen, Smedes Professor of Christian Ethics, Fuller  Theological Seminary, He served on  the International Committee, co-chaired the Strategy Committee, and  chaired the Euromissile Committee of the Freeze Campaign; and is a  board member of Peace Action.
