A response to seven comments on the author's "A New Chance for Human Peaceableness?" offered by Cheryl de la Rey, Caroline Lamwaka, Ursula Oswald Spring, Mary Soledad L. Perpinan, Adam Curle, Peter Suedfeld, & David Adams (all, 2000). Defends the call to build a Culture of Peace 2000 as more than "shallow millennialism," but as a new opportunity for civic participation in creating a peace praxis based on full recognition of contemporary social & economic injustices & abuse of power. Contributors are commended for their emphasis on citizenship, conflict resolution strategies, human potentials, & examples of specific peace-promoting programs. The inclusion of gender issues by De la Rey & Perpinan is particularly praiseworthy. 2 References. K. Hyatt Stewart
