Ndi Winslow Myers
Mkati mwa nthawi yayitali yamkangano pakati pa United States ndi dziko lomwe kale linali Soviet Union, kupikisana kwa zida zamphamvu zanyukiliya kunadziwika kwa ambiri m'maiko onse awiriwa. Mawu a Albert Einstein ochokera mu 1946 akuwoneka ngati ulosi wopitilira muyeso: "Mphamvu yotulutsidwa ya atomu yasintha chilichonse kupulumutsa malingaliro athu, motero tikupita ku tsoka losayerekezeka." Purezidenti Reagan ndi Secretary General a Gorbachev adazindikira kuti akukumana ndi vuto limodzi, lomwe lingathetsedwe ndi "malingaliro" atsopano. Maganizo atsopanowa adalola kuti nkhondo yozizira yazaka makumi asanu ifike pamapeto modabwitsa.
Bungwe lomwe ndidadzipereka kwa zaka za 30 lidatulutsa gawo lofunika kwambiri pakusintha kwakukuru uku mwa kuganiza kwatsopano. Tinakonza kuti asayansi apamwamba aku Soviet and America azikumana ndikugwirira ntchito limodzi kuti tilembere zikalata pa nkhondo mwangozi. Izi sizinali zophweka nthawi zonse, koma zotsatira zake zinali buku loyamba kufalitsidwa nthawi yomweyo ku US ndi USSR, yotchedwa Kupasuka. A Gorbachev adawerenga bukuli ndipo adati akufuna kuivomereza.
Kodi ndimaganizo amtundu wanji omwe adalola asayansi awa kuti awononge makoma osiyanitsa ndi okonda kuganiza? Kodi zingatani kuti nkhondo zitheke padzikoli? Kulimbana ndi Nkhondo imasanthula mafunso awa mwakuya. Imakhazikitsidwa mogwirizana, ndipo mitu ya zokambirana kumapeto kwa mutu uliwonse. Izi zimathandiza kuti magulu ang'onoang'ono ndi mabungwe agwirizane pamodzi za zovuta kuthetsa nkhondo.
Cholinga cha bukuli ndichopatsa chiyembekezo: anthu ali ndi mphamvu zosunthira kunkhondo pamagulu aliwonse kuyambira pawokha mpaka padziko lonse lapansi. Kodi mphamvuzi zimamasulidwa bwanji? Mwa chidziwitso, chisankho, ndi zochita.
Chidacho, chomwe chili mgawo loyamba la bukuli, chikufotokozera chifukwa chake nkhondo zamakono zatha - sizinathe, koma osagwira ntchito. Izi zikuwonekera pamlingo wa zida za nyukiliya - "kupambana" ndikunamizira. Koma kuyang'ana mwachangu ku Syria kapena Iraq ku 2014 kukuwonetsa zopanda pake pamisonkhano yachilendo komanso nkhondo ya zida za nyukiliya ngati njira yabwino yothetsera kusamvana.
Chidziwitso chachiwiri chawululidwa ndikugogomezera za vuto la kusakhazikika kwa nyengo yomwe dziko limakumana nayo: tonse tili pamodzi monga anthu, ndipo tiyenera kuphunzira kugwirira ntchito limodzi kapena ana athu ndi zidzukulu sizingakule.
Chisankho chaumwini ("de" - "cision," kuchotsera) chimafunika, chomwe chimathetsa kuwona nkhondo ngati chinthu chosafunikira, chomvetsa chisoni koma chofunikira chomaliza, ndikuwona kuti ndi njira yothetsera vutoli. mikangano yomwe anthu opanda ungwiro azikhala nayo nthawi zonse. Pokhapokha titanena mosapita m'mbali kuti palibe chisankho pankhondo ndipamene njira zatsopano zopangira zinthu zidzawonekera-ndipo pali zambiri. Kuthetsa kusamvana kosagwirizana ndi gawo lotsogola komanso kafukufuku yemwe akudikira kuti agwiritsidwe ntchito. Funso ndilakuti, kodi tidzagwiritsa ntchito nthawi zonse?
Pali zomwe zimakhudza kwambiri zenizeni zakuti padziko lapansi lankhondo lodzaza ndi anthu latha ndipo ndife mtundu umodzi wa anthu. Titaganiza zokana nkhondo, tiyenera kudzipereka kuti tizikhala ndi malingaliro atsopano, omwe amakhazikitsa bata koma osatheka: ndithetsa mikangano yonse. Sindigwiritsa ntchito chiwawa. Sindidzatanganidwa ndi adani. M'malo mwake, ndizikhala ndi malingaliro osagwirizana pazabwino. Ndigwira ntchito ndi ena kuti apange world beyond war.
Izi ndi zina mwamavuto ake. Kodi zotsatila zake ndizotani? Ndichani? Kodi timatani? Timaphunzitsa, pamlingo wa mfundo. Pali njira zambiri zobweretsera kusintha pamakhalidwe abwino, koma maphunziro ndiwofunika kwambiri, m'njira zina ovuta kwambiri, koma njira yodalirika yosinthira kusinthika kwenikweni. Mfundo zamphamvu. Nkhondo yatha. Ndife amodzi: izi ndi mfundo zofunika, pamlingo wa "Anthu onse adapangidwa wofanana." Mfundo izi, zofalitsika mokwanira, zili ndi mphamvu zotha kusintha pa "malingaliro" padziko lonse lapansi pankhani yankhondo.
Nkhondo ndi njira yodziyimira yokha yolimbikitsidwa ndi umbuli, mantha, ndi umbombo. Mwayi ndikusankha kutuluka m'dongosolo lino ndikukhala ndi malingaliro opanga. Mwa njira yolengezerayi, titha kuphunzira kuthana ndi malingaliro amalingaliro awiri omwe ali m'mawu akuti "muli nafe kapena mutsutsana nafe." M'malo mwake titha kupereka chitsanzo cha njira yachitatu yomwe imalimbikitsa kumvera kuti timvetsetse ndikukambirana. Kuchita mwanjira imeneyi sikungafanane ndi kutanganidwa ndi mantha ndi "mdani" wawo waposachedwa. "Maganizo akale" oterewa adapangitsa kuti United States ichitepo kanthu pazowopsa za 9-11.
Mitundu yathu yakhala ikuyenda pang'onopang'ono kwambiri mpaka kufika poti chizindikiritso chathu chachikulu sichilinso ndi fuko lathu, kapena mudzi wawung'ono, kapena dziko lathu, ngakhale kumverera kwadziko kuli gawo lamphamvu kwambiri m'nthano zankhondo. M'malo mwake, ngakhale titha kudzilingalira tokha ngati Ayuda kapena Republican kapena Asilamu kapena aku Asia kapena zilizonse, chizindikiritso chathu choyambirira chiyenera kukhala ndi Dziko lapansi ndi zamoyo zonse zapadziko lapansi, anthu komanso osakhala anthu. Umu ndi momwe onse amagwirizanira. Mwa chizindikiritso ichi chonse, zodabwitsa zodabwitsa zitha kutsanulidwa. Malingaliro owopsa opatukana ndi kudzipatula omwe amatsogolera kunkhondo atha kusungunuka kukhala kulumikizana kowona.
Winslow Myers akhala akutsogolera semina pa zosintha zamunthu komanso zapadziko lonse lapansi kwa zaka za 30. Adatumikira pa Board of Beyond War ndipo pano ali pa Advisory Board of the War Prevention Initiative. Mizati yake yolembedwa kuchokera pa lingaliro la "malingaliro atsopano" yalembedwa pa winslowmyersopeds.blogspot.com.
