Kurt Lewin Memorial Address, 1986: War, Peace, and Psychology
I am immensely pleased to join so many of my teachers, mentors, and admired colleagues in psychology as a recipient of the Lewin Award-the one of all possible honors that means the most to me. Often recipients of the award have honored the memory of Kurt Lewin by drawing on their own contributions of socially relevant research in their talks, research that was a primary reason for their having been chosen. I did not receive the award because of my research, so I will devote this address to the topic on SPSSI’s long-term agenda that now most urgently needs our attention-war and peace.
