Joining Helga Zepp-LaRouche will be Sam&nbsp;Pitroda, an innovator, entrepreneur, and policymaker. He&nbsp;has been a Cabinet Minister and advisor serving over the years seven Indian prime ministers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This presentation will advance the Schiller Institute\u2019s proposal for the creation of a new world security and development architecture, rejecting the \u201cGlobal NATO\u201d perpetual war practice. Zepp-LaRouche has long discussed this approach, including in \u201c<a href=\"\/?p=64048\">Gandhi\u2019s Vision for a New Paradigm in international Relations, a World Health System, and Direct Non-Violent Action In Times of Social Breakdown<\/a>,\u201d a paper delivered at the online International Conference of the Association of Asian Scholars on \u201cRevisiting Gandhi: Peace, Justice and Development,\u201d October 30-31, 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The relationship to India of Zepp-LaRouche and her husband, the late statesman and economist Lyndon LaRouche, was a bedrock influence in how the Schiller Institute was formed. Lyndon LaRouche, presenting testimony to an international tribunal of legislators, legal experts, diplomats and civil rights leaders conducting Independent Hearings to investigate misconduct of the United States Department of Justice, described how he began his political career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>A number of these students who participated in [my] classes, became associated with me, and out of this association came the birth of a nascent political organization, as much a philosophical organization as political. Our essential commitment was to Third World issues and related issues \u2013 that is, economic justice for what is called the Third World, is essential for a just society for <em><strong>all<\/strong><\/em> nations. I became particularly attached to this during military service overseas in India, where I saw what colonialism does to people\u2026. and that if we allowed the circumstances to prevail that I saw to prevail in the Third World, we will bring upon ourselves some kind of disaster, either war, or something comparable down the line. And that was essentially our commitment as an association.<\/p><cite>\u2014 Lyndon LaRouche, 1995 <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.schillerinstitute.com\/exon\/exon_lhl_testimony.html\">speech<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On August 6, <em>The Hindu<\/em>, a major Indian newspaper ran an article, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thehindu.com\/news\/national\/schiller-institute-calls-for-new-bretton-woods-to-end-war-economic-crisis\/article65733943.ece\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.thehindu.com\/news\/national\/schiller-institute-calls-for-new-bretton-woods-to-end-war-economic-crisis\/article65733943.ece\">Schiller Institute Calls for New Bretton Woods to End War, Economic Crisis<\/a>,\u201d illustrated with a prominent photograph of a 2001 meeting of Mr. and Mrs. LaRouche with then-Indian President K.R.
