Summary/Abstract: Published in 1952 by UNESCO, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization. Because of its structure and the tasks assigned to it, Unesco is the international institution best equipped to lead the campaign against race prejudice and to extirpate this most dangerous of doctrines. Race hatred and conflict thrive on scientifically false ideas and are nourished by ignorance. In order to show up these errors of fact and reasoning, to make widely known the conclusions reached in various branches of science, to combat racial propaganda, we must turn to the means and methods of education, science and culture, which are precisely the three domains in which Unesco’s activities are exerted; it is on this threefold front that the battle against all forms of racism must be engaged.
