UNIFICATION CHURCH

On December 31, 1979, Sheriff's deputies accompanied County Health Inspectors on a health inspection of Camp Mc Connell and were approached by two conference attendees who requested transportation from the camp. A total of seven attendees of the approximate 220 to 250 requested transportation from the camp.

I

jadvised that the investigation by the Alachua County SherlIf's Office of this incident determined that no one was being held against their will at Camp Mc Connell and that there was apparently some misrepresentation of the true identity of the Collegiate Association for the Research of Princi~les and of the activities to take place at the camp. l stated, however, that there were no apparent violations of any Federal, State or local laws.

gained independence in the postwar period and having had a decade or two of experience in that independent state, these nations nave resources which might fuel their participation in their own or joint development programs. They are almost uniforcly troubled and frustrated in their attempts to participate in a "second industrial revolution" on their own terms.

GROUP I-C: Chairman:

The theme for this Group is built around the issues of postwar devel­ opment and future thrust of the veterans of the first industrial revolution who are bein~ called upon (the "Brandt Report ••• " is a recent example) to assist their former colonies/suppliers into new stages of economic development (e. g'., USA. England. France. West Cermany, etc.). These are the industrial giants "hich are develop­ ing- neVi views of the objectives of national development. which have had the greatest experience in international planning for trade and development - and which have seen great dissatisfaction with their systems' performance both internally and as their performance affects other national groups.

This is probably the place to consider the "only surviving postwar eiDpire'" - the Russian anachronism.

The theme for this Group is built around the issue of the "les8 de­ veloped countries"; the nations which have emerged or reemerged as independent states in a state of "chronic poverty"; the nations for wnor.l freedom has included the bitter in greater Jneasure than the 8\feet all too often. This is a group of nations which have been tossed into "classificatiolls" and lar~ely forgotten (e.g .• Sub-Saharan -­ Africa).

JaPM= Since there have been so many conferences on energy since 1973, we ought 'to focus on aspects of energy that have not been overworked ad nause8ln. Our general theme is whether we are soon to be en­ trapped by the entropy law, or whether the intelligent deployment of existing energy technologies is likely to avert the catastrophes iJreached by the entropists. Topics that might he touched upon include: 1)

'\

· 'J . .

Is conservation of energy (as opposed to conservation of a truly relevant strate:;y during the next twenty years?

oil)

2)

The rediscovery of electricity - that is, the claim by tech­ .nological optimists that substitution of electricity generated from c\l8l or uranium could ease the 011 crisis. This mifht include a discussion of the outlook for electric transport.

3)

The problem of intermittency in renewable energy systems. Can the storage problelR of renewabIes really be solved?

4)

What energy technologies are appropriate for developing countries - for example, hydro verSl1S trendier renewables?

5)

Can nuclear energy be salvaged?

The entropy crisis encompasses 80clal disorganization as well as phys­ ical pollution. Are the new technologies of information part of the problem or part of the solution - or both? The papers here should ~rimar1ly give an account of the state of the art in information sys­ tems. microprocessors. and infolT.1ation utilities as they address the prior question the social icJplications of these developments should be included.

•••• GROUP Il-C:

Chairman:

The first paper. "Can we escape from the entropy trap?". in a \fay is a keynote for the entire Committee. This paper ought to delJcribe the entropy trap as envisaged by the Neo-Malthusians. and then ou~ht to discuss' the relevance of these gloomy predictions during the transi­ tion period as well as point to paths for avoiding the trap. The second paper shOUld consider the outlook for minerals. For example. Limits to Growth claims that we shall run out of aluminum in less than Mty years. '-'by is that assertion wrong? What about other minerals? Is the crisis in oU likely to be repeated with other minerals? lihat about substitution for minerals that are in short· supply? The final paper ought to examine the extent to which genetic engi­ neering and other biological advances are likely to ease problems of food and enern production. The issue of recombinant DNA might be mentioned. but mainly in the context of its promise - say. for devel­ opment of nitrogen ('lXing cereals - rather than the context of the ethical problems it poses.

Today science. or at least "applied science" is generally thought to be concerned with the improvement of human welfare and the devel­ opment of technology for the benefit of mankind. Will science con­ tinue to develop in this way. or will we have reached. at least in some fields. the limits of technological progress? VIllI science there­ fore be more concerned with extending the limits of human under­ standinliC. and with giving satisfaction to its practitioners?

For the past 200 years European, Christian civilization has been tech­ nically superior to Asian civilization and, for most of that period, numerically inferior. The period of Euro-American technological predominance has come to an end and, In the area of industry and commerce, the question is being asked: Wha~ can the West learn from the way the Japanese, Koreans and other Asians org'anize their econ­ kI omy and society? However, the organization of the economy is an expression of the larger issue of the values that move a community. id In the past, Asian clvilization has taken much from the West. Un­ doubtedly the Impact of Asia on the West will grow as the West con­ fronts the continuing success of Asian technological civilization and I worldwide communication makes each culture more readily accessible to the other. Because of the location of the Conference, the G roup will focus on East Asia. I
