RT Conference Proceedings T1 Aggressiveness can be psychobiologically milded: 1. Biology does not condemn humanity to violence A1 Ramirez, J. Martin AB A brief history on the preparation of the Seville Statement on Violence (SSV) and a short exposition of its propositions are provided. The SSV was originated by an ISRA (International Society for Research on Aggression)launched UN-Committee in the late seventies of the past century. Which were the main reasons which urged us to elaborate the Statement, which difficulties were found on the way and how finally that first 'scientific' steptowards peace was achieved? Its final product, elaborated by more than twenty scholars from different scientific disciplines and from all continents, was presented in Seville in 1986, at the VI Coloquio Internacional sobreCerebro y AgresiĆ³n (CICA). Three years later, it was endorsed by the 25th General Conference of UNESCO, in Paris. Its main message is that violence and war are not genetically inavoidable, that human nature does not obly usto behave violently.
