Abstract
In 1982 when the Erice Statement was written to address the real danger of nuclear war, the fear was that technology would be used not by the culture of love, but the culture of hatred to kill and destroy. These dangers of mass destructions are still very much with us today with more countries and groups trying to acquire nuclear weapons.
The author is former President of Academia Sinica, Taiwan. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1986 (along with Dudley Herschbach and John Polanyi) for his work on understanding the dynamics of chemical reactions.
