Lenin Raghuvanshi on the 2024 Nobel Peace Prize: A Call for Addressing Hegemonic Masculinity in Nuclear Nations


🌍 Lenin Raghuvanshi on the 2024 Nobel Peace Prize: A Call for Addressing Hegemonic Masculinity in Nuclear Nations

The awarding of the #NobelPeacePrize to Nihon Hidankyo—a grassroots movement of atomic bomb survivors—marks a powerful moment for global disarmament. But as Lenin Raghuvanshi emphasizes, true peace requires dismantling hegemonic masculinity, patriarchy, and the caste systems that fuel militarism. The wars in Ukraine and the Middle East exemplify how toxic masculinity often drives conflict instead of diplomatic dialogue.
As the world honors the Hibakusha’s activism, Raghuvanshi’s vision calls for a global movement that integrates disarmament with gender and social justice to ensure lasting peace.
