Since its inception in 1981, Concerned Philosophers for Peace [CPP] has become the largest, most active organization of professional philosophers in North America involved in the analysis of the causes of war and prospects for peace. The organization holds an annual conference as well as programs at each divisional meeting of the American Philosophical Association.
The newsletter Concerned Philosophers for Peace began in 1981 as PANDORA, an acronym for Philosophers Against Nuclear Destruction of Rational Animals. In December 1982, the title of the newsletter changed to Concerned Philosophers. A year later, it became Concerned Philosophers for Peace.
