EEE会議(米国におけるAtoms for Peace50周年記念会議のご案内)........................................2003.10.2


今秋、アイゼンハワー大統領の"Atoms for Peace"演説50周年を記念する国際会議
が米国各地で次々に開催されます。小生の所にもいくつか出席招請状が来ております
ので、比較的重要なものを3件ご参考までにお目にかけます。

1番目のものは、ローレンス・リバモア国立研究所(LLNL)の世界安全保障研究セン
タ―(CGSR)の主催により11月13―14日、同研究所で。すでに3回(4月リバモ
ア、5月御殿場、7月フランス・サクレー)で開催され、今回が最終回。 

2番目のは、ワシントンの外交政策分析研究所(IFPA)の主催、エネルギー省後援で、
10月22日、ワシントンDCで。

3番目のは、ワシントンのウッドロー・ウィルソン国際研究者センター(WWICS)の主
催、ロスアラモス国立研究所協賛で、12月8―9日、ワシントンで。

各会議の開催趣旨やアジェンダは大同小異のようですが、原子力平和利用分野より軍
事利用(核戦略、核軍縮、核拡散)分野に大きなウェイトがかかっているのが共通の
特徴です。その点で、我々が9月29、30日東京・日本橋で開催した会議とはかな
り趣が異なっているようです。ワシントンの会議では、Abrahamエネルギー庁長官が
基調講演する予定。

なお、小生自身これらに出席するかどうかまだ決めておりません。もしこれら3つの
会議の内、どれかに是非参加してみたいと思われる方はご一報ください。先方にご希
望をお取次ぎいたします(ただし、出席者が限定的である場合が多く、必ずしもOKに
なるかどうか分かりませんので、お含みおきください)。

1.ローレンスリバモア(LLNL)主催の会議(最終回)

Dear Professor Kaneko:

On behalf of the Center for Global Security Research, I am pleased to invite
you to the Symposium at the conclusion of our six-month study "Atoms for
Peace after 50 Years: New Challenges and Opportunities."  The Symposium will
be held at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, CA on
Nov. 13-14, 2003.

In preparing for the final Symposium, three workshops and one conference
were convened during the past year to focus on different facets of the
nuclear issues that have arisen in the 50 years since Dwight D. Eisenhower's
"Atoms for Peace" speech before the United Nations (December 8, 1953).  We
examined Defense, Deterrence, and Nonproliferation (April in Livermore, CA);
Civilian Applications (May near Gotemba, Japan); and the Cross-Cutting
Issues of materials, governance, and public confidence (July in Saclay,
France).  A preliminary summary of our findings was presented at a
conference in Washington, DC in September and a close-to-final draft of our
complete report will be circulated to attendees about a week before the
final Symposium and will serve to focus discussion.

On the first day of our Symposium we will reflect on the issues and forces
that shaped the rise of nuclear technology in the world since Eisenhower's
historic speech.  We will have three panels composed for the most part of
individuals who played key roles during this period and who have first-hand
insights into how we arrived where we are today.  On the second day we will
look forward to the challenges and opportunities of nuclear technology in
the next 25 to 50 years, and present the results of our project.  A panel of
key thinkers and shapers will respond to the report and add its own insights
for the future.  Our purpose is to understand what the key forces are for
the future, what actions may be needed to shape the future, and what may be
needed to resolve deep differences in both the perception and reality of the
significance of nuclear technology in both the military and civilian
spheres.

Please let Karen Kimball (925-423-5896 / kimball2@llnl.gov) know as soon as
possible if you will be able to attend and what, if any, arrangements you
may require.  Because attendance is limited, I should greatly appreciate
your prompt response.  If you are not a U.S. citizen, please let Karen know
as soon as possible so that we can make the necessary arrangements for
access to our facility. A draft agenda of the Symposium is below for your
information.

I look forward to your participation and your insights.

Sincerely,

Ronald F. Lehman II
Director
Center for Global Security Research

3.ウィルソン国際研究者センター(WWICS)主催の会議

Dear Colleague:

On behalf of Lee Hamilton, President of the Woodrow Wilson International
Center for Scholars, Timothy Sullivan, President of the College of William
and Mary and myself, I am writing to invite you to a conference co-hosted
by our organizations marking the 50th anniversary of Atoms for Peace.  This
event will be held at the Woodrow Wilson Center, located in the Ronald
Reagan Building in Washington, DC, on December 8-9, 2003.

Prominent security issues of today  including serious questions about
Iran's nuclear program, the prospects of a nuclear energy renaissance with
dramatic implications for global prosperity as well as proliferation,
efforts to develop commercial uses for excess defense nuclear material and
the dreadful prospect of nuclear and radiological terrorism  can be seen
through the prism of Atoms for Peace.  Was this initiative fatally flawed
or the only basis for reducing nuclear dangers while enjoying the benefits
of peaceful nuclear energy?

It is an appropriate time to reassess the legacy of the proposal and the
nuclear nonproliferation regime elements it underlies, and to look ahead to
assess the relevance of Atoms for Peace for dealing with nuclear energy,
nonproliferation, arms control and terrorism issues over the next 50
years.  To this end, this meeting will seek to provide a balanced
assessment of the future bounded in an analysis and appreciation of the
past.

We would like you to participate in what we expect to be a lively and
wide-ranging discussion led by internationally recognized experts.  We hope
you will be able to participate.

Sincerely,

[Original signed by]

G. Peter Nanos
Director
