「Nations and Peace」
1000語ぐらいの英語の単語だけを使って、世平を平和にできるシテムを考えるための本です。 「絵で見る英語」というクラシックの教科書(地味だけどクラシックだから!)や #GDM( #段階的直接法創造したリチャーズは戦争によって人類が絶滅しないようにこの本を作ったと思う。 著作権が切れただろうけど、Archive.orgで自由にダウンロードできる。UkraineやYemenなどなどの戦争を考えるために役立つかもしれない。 ロシアがやったら悪いけど、米国やフランスやイギリスなど人の港をのってとったり(ジブチと日本の海外軍基地!？!？)、人を空爆したりし て もいいことないでしょう。 あいうことだれがやってもだめだろう。
UN ---> UP
#UnitedNations ---> #UnitedPeoples

I have to slow down and see if I've read the whole book, but he mentions how unlucky, in English, the initials #UN are in another essay. In this book #IARichards argues for an #UP , #UnitedPeoples and he does while only using a thousand or so different words... When I first discovered this book at #ArchiveOrg I searched for the #UnitedWorldFederalists and remembered a lot of interesting people, writers and artists were involved. I can't remember if #KurtVonnegut was with the organization or not
