N2 - The text considers the problem of Albert Schweitzer's fight to stop the development of nuclear weapons, in view of the problem of modern international terrorism. Special services in many countries for some time gains information about the efforts of various terrorist organizations to obtain nuclear weapons (or components and knowledge needed to produce it). To determine the risk there was establish a term: 'nuclear terrorism', and many actions (legal and operational) are taken in order to prevent this phenomenon. Currently no one questions the clear negativity of nuclear terrorism, so it's worth to think about its structure and causes – which arise from human destructiveness. The element of self-destruction, present in human nature manifested itself particularly strongly with the invention of weapon with such great power of destruction, which is a nuclear weapon. Albert Schweitzer noticed an element of self-destruction, calling it 'an inhuman way of thinking' and actively engaged in a worldwide campaign against nuclear armament. The main reason which cause the Doctor of Lambaréné to take this activity, was to draw the attention of world public opinion on the negative effects of nuclear test-explosions. However, during the exploration of issues (in which he was supported by eminent specialists in the field of nuclear physics, with Albert Einstein headed), Schweitzer discovered a much more serious danger threatening all of humanity. This text is an attempt to answer the question about the topicality of peace appeals made by him in the 50's and 60's. The author reminds the risks associated with the development of nuclear weapons and technology in Schweitzer's times and at the present time, trying to outline the basic differences between them.

N2 - In diesem Text geht es um den Kampf Alberts Schweitzers um ein Ende der Entwicklung der Atomwaffen; dies unter Berücksichtigung der Probleme des gegenwärtigen internationalen Terrorismus. Das Element der Selbstzerstörung, das in der menschlichen Natur liegt, tritt besonders dadurch zutage, dass eine Waffe mit derart großer Zerstörungskraft erfunden wurde. Albert Schweitzer erkannte diese Elemente der Selbstzerstörung und bezeichnete sie als >unmenschliche Denkweise<. Albert Schweitzer engagierte sich für die weltweite Kampagne gegen die Nuklearbewaffnung. Dieser Text ist der Versuch einer Antwort auf die Aktualität seiner Friedensappelle, die Schweitzer in den 50er- und 60er-Jahren verfasst hat. Der Autor erinnert an die Bedrohung durch die Entwicklung der Atomwaffen in der Zeit von Albert Schweitzer und heute und fragt: Sind Schweitzers Aktivitäten für Frieden für die heutigen Probleme der modernen Zivilisation wichtig? Hängt die Anti-Atom-Rhetorik der 50er und 60er-Jahre in irgendeiner Weise mit dem Problem des postmodern Nuklearterrorismus zusammen? Und beantwortet diese Fragen bestätigend. Y1 - 2012 ER -
