Abstract
While the perils of climate breakdown and Artificial Intelligence garner and even monopolize attention today, humanity and its leaders neglect addressing other formidable dangers – notably, nuclear war and militarism more broadly. Not only is the existential threat of nuclear war real and pressing, but, at this historical juncture of multiple planetary crises, humanity cannot afford investing in any aspect of the military machine. Here, the authors press for the collective recognition of the imperative of nuclear disarmament and of the abolition of all war and its material and ideational infrastructures.
