Just five years ago Trident Ploughshares began its open, accountable and nonviolent campaign against Trident, Britain's weapon of mass destruction.

The Celtic Confederation is mainly a cultural confederation for the Celtic Rim of Europe. However, economic cooperation and developments and international lobbies, mostly at the European (Union), are part of the tasks of the confederation together with education and science policy development. Ireland as only sovereign state within this confederation shall sign treaties with the United Kingdom and France to assure their territorial integrity. With this treaty, the UK and France are assured that the confederation is no threat to their territorial integrity. If both nations refuse to sign such a treaty another measure has to be taken to satisfy their anxieties. One is that the Confederation becomes an Irish Foundation with independent Foundations from the Celtic regions in the UK and France.The New World: rapport about the balanced community of the New World
The New World is in initiative for a New World community, based on Pacifism, Socialism, and Environmentalism. Heiko de Graaf and Erik van Luxzenburg have created it at December the 12, 1996 after a medium period of discussing how a New World order has to look like with additions of Ronald Visser. At December the 12 1996, Erik van Luxzenburg completed this report. He also made this translation at February 29 2000. Now it is a years old project of Peacefull Young Idealists from the Netherlands. though created in 1996 it is stil a valid dream. The New World tries to give a general philosophy based on socialist, anarchist and partly kibbuts ideals to create autarkic communities and the ways these communities co-operate as parrallel societies next to the nowadays society.An update is necessary to invent communities based on this philosophy living in cities or urbanised areas there the original philosophy was based on "empty" areas in Asia
