Myron W. Kronisch, Vice-Chair, Board of Directors, Center for War/Peace Studies will discuss his view of the future for the United Nations at our Sunday Platform at 11:00 AM on February 6th. Mr. Kronisch has been received by 39 Permanent Missions to the UN and Foreign Ministries to discuss revitalization and reform of the General Assembly. On the subject of a more effective UN, he has had op-ed articles published in the New York Times, International Herald Tribune and many other papers around the world.
His Peace Studies organization is promoting reform of the UN with Universal Regional Representation with a DVD illustrating his plan as time allows.
He has been in private law practice as a senior partner and a member of the Board of Editors of the New Jersey Law Journal from 1976 to date. Mr. Kronisch formerly served in the military service as an officer in a tank battalion in Korea and as a captain in the US Army Reserves.
Mike has four children and eleven grandchildren all of whom can recite Mike's mantra: "Peace is not merely the absence of war. Peace requires the institutions of government which are law, order and justice. World Peace requires a UN federation with those powers."
