Dear GHA members, friends in peace, We, with Glen Martin, coleader of this project, are happy to inform you that the GHA new project, briefly: Monitoring of Peace and War (in attachment), which is the part of Global Peace Science (GPS) and was created within its methodology of the SOCIONOME (social genome of global peace from harmony) was approved the GHA unanimously. During the days of its discussion about 40 peacemakers joined to it from 14 countries: Argentina, Armenia, Ghana, Greece, India, Israel, Kazakhstan, Nepal, Pakistan, Romania, Russia, Slovenia, France, and USA. The project has not received any "NO" during our open democratic public discussion and voting. This monitoring is a peacemaking tool of GPS and GPS is part of its scientific basis. We, with Glen, express our sincere gratitude to all participants for this en bloc vote. We hope that to this project and GPS will join other peacemakers from the GHA and other organizations as proposed monitoring is an innovative and effective tool for building global peace, serving as a barometer of war and peace in world public opinion. What can prevent peacemakers from recognizing this new peace tool? With its simplification, for example, up to 40 instead of 80 indicators, retaining only the most accurate figures quoted: "", it can be used by almost every peacemaker, knowing the Internet and its search engine Google. Such monitoring can be arranged for any continent, any region and any country separately in special centers. The GHA is currently considering the establishment of a network of similar monitoring centers in India, Africa, Europe, Russia, Kazakhstan and other countries and continents. On the basis of this project, the TV program "War and Peace" has also been established to discuss the dynamics of the priorities of peace and war in public consciousness, which is the first source of any war and any aspirations to peace as recorded in UN and UNESCO documents. It will be a strong barrier to new wars. The first quarterly monitoring on January 1, 2014 showed that, in public consciousness, the priority of war EXCEEDS peace priority, at least 3-9 times, and actually still is many times greater in view of the vast array of secret military information of numerous military ministries and departments BEYOND Internet and public consciousness as shown by Snowden and Wikileaks revelations. Military information is like an iceberg, the available part of which in the Internet is only the smallest part. This fact can be interpreted in only one way: it means that humanity today feasts, especially in unlimited consumption of the rich countries and on the arms race in time the plague (rule) of military consciousness may dominate everything. There are no other evaluations. We think that public consciousness can be treated and released from militaristic plague with help of GPS, the transformative work of peace-makers around the world, and acceptance of the Constitution for the Federation of Earth (http://worldparliament-gov.org/constitution/the-earth-constitution). Therefore, we are pleased to once again invite scientists-peacemakers to participate in the GPS book, the basic ideas, Contents in the first approximation and requirements to articles of which are published here: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=585 In such dominance of military consciousness, what is surprising is not this fact but why humanity does not start out with a total war of all against all? The answer to this question is provided by GPS and no any other science. There are overwhelming ethical, social, political, and economic reasons for peace, which are explained in GPS. The GPS legal supplement is the Earth Constitution created by World Constitution and Parliament Association. It is now in the process of establishing worldwide public recognition (www.wcpa.biz, www.worldparliament-gov.org). The monitoring project is published with new additions and changes in the new edition here: www.peacefromharmony.org/?cat=en_c&key=588. We thank Dr. Bruce Cook, President of GHA-USA for its final editing. All peacemakers are welcome to join this project without restrictions. We hope that this monitoring as a necessary and effective peacemaking tool, which is not yet at peacemakers, will find support and new adherents from around the world. With best wishes for peace from harmony, Monitoring Project Managers and GPS Co-editors: Dr. Leo Semashko GHA President (www.peacefromharmony.org) and Dr. Glen T. Martin President, World Constitution and Parliament Assoc.
