In a direct and committed language Dieter Duhm describes the state of love in
our culture today. He places the unsolved issues of jealousy, free love, faithfulness, longing, impotence, morals etc. at the center of the question of true non-violence and peace. From the experience of free love he develops new
perspectives for a new way of living, where love between two people no
longer excludes free love. He describes the philosophical and social basis for a culture in which jealousy is no longer a natural law, where sexual desires no
longer have to be suppressed and where faithfulness between two lovers no
longer breaks down because of a too narrow vision of love. "Knowing love"
is the term he uses for the process of developing a culture without sexual re-
pression, fear and violence.

Historian, Author and Psychoanalyst, Dieter Duhm (PhD Sociology) was born in 1942 in Berlin, Germany and is the initiator of the ¿Plan of the Healing Biotypes¿, a glo- bal peace plan. From 1967 he engaged in the Marxist left, including being one of the leading characters in the stu- dents¿ movement. In 1972 his well-known book ¿Angst im Kapitalismus¿ (Fear in Capitalism) was published, which made the link between the thoughts behind politi- cal revolution and thoughts behind the liberation of the individual.1975 saw a distancing from leftist dogmatism and a shift towards a more thorough human alternative, leading to the establishment of the `Bauhutte¿ project: a three year social experiment with 40 participants in the Black-Forest in Germany. With the theme of `founding a community in our times¿ the experiment embraced the questions of the origin, meaning and aim of human existence on planet Earth. Arising from the experiment come outlines of a new possibility of existence with the concepts of `free love¿, `spiritual ecology¿ and `resonance technology¿.In 1995, together with Theologian Sabine Lichtenfels and others, he founded Tamera Peace Research Centre in Portugal, which today has more than 160 co- workers.Dieter Duhm has dedicated his life to creating an effective forum for a global peace-initiative which is a match for the destructive forces of capitalistic globali- sation.
