If
the Gandhian moment is to be realized, then it must encompass both concerns with
the violence of weapons and the violence of inequitable structures of domination
and exploitation. Perhaps, unwittingly, the visibility of this violence due to
the globalization of media coverage, especially TV, will hasten the process by
which the peoples of the world sick from violence and the suffering entailed,
will hasten the awakening of conscience and commitment needed to carry forward
the struggle for a nonviolent world order. This is as much as we can hope for
at present, but such a hope will certainly prove vain if we do not also act to
the fullness of our individual and collective capacities to rid the world of war
and violence.
