Dublin Declaration

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Dublin Declaration was a landmark 1945 world federalist resolution passed at a conference in Dublin, New Hampshire convened by retired U.S. Supreme Court Justice Owen J. Roberts and former New Hampshire Governor Robert P. Bass. It proposed the transformation of the U.N. General Assembly into a world legislature with "limited but definite and adequate power for the prevention of war."[1] Many participants including Alan Cranston went on to become leaders in the United World Federalists. This resolution is not to be confused with other declarations with similar names, including the Dublin Declaration on Partnership to fight HIV/AIDS in Europe and Central Asia.
