Muriel Helen Duckworth CM ONS (née Ball; October 31, 1908 – August 22, 2009) was a Canadian pacifist, feminist, and social and community activist. She was a practising Quaker, a religious denomination committed to non-violence. Duckworth maintained that war, with its systematic violence against women and children, is a major obstacle to social justice. She argued that money spent on armaments perpetuates poverty while reinforcing the power of privileged elites. She believed that "war is stupid" and she steadfastly refused to accept popular distinctions between "good" and "bad" wars.

  • مورييل داكويرث (بالإنجليزية: Muriel Duckworth)‏‏ (31 أكتوبر 1908 في كيبك - 22 أغسطس 2009 في ماغوغ، كيبك) حائزة على وسام كندا ومرتبة الشرف في مقاطعة نوفا سكوشا، كانت ناشطة في مجال السلام، ونسوية، وناشطة مجتمعية واجتماعية كندية. كانت عضوًا في جمعية الأصدقاء الدينية، وهي جماعة دينية ملتزمة بمبدأ اللاعنف. قالت داكوورث أن الحرب، بعنفها الموجّه ضد النساء والأطفال، تشكّل عقبة رئيسية أمام تحقيق العدالة الاجتماعية. وناقشت فكرة أن المال الذي يُنفق على التسلّح يديم الفقر لأنه يعزّز قوة النخب المتمتعة بامتيازات خاصة. كانت تؤمن بأن «الحرب أمر غبي»، ورفضت بصمود التسليم بالتفرقة الشعبية بين حروب «الخير» و«الشر».

  • Muriel Helen Duckworth, nata Muriel Boll , è stata una pacifista, femminista e attivista canadese. Fu una quacchera, confessione religiosa impegnata nella non-violenza. La Duckworth ha sostenuto che la guerra, con la sua violenza sistematica contro le donne e i bambini, è un grave ostacolo alla giustizia sociale. Ha sostenuto che il denaro speso per gli armamenti perpetua la povertà, rafforzando nel contempo il potere delle élite privilegiata. Credeva fermamente che la guerra fosse stupida ed ha sempre rifiutato di accettare le distinzioni popolari tra buono e cattivo in ambito bellico. (it)
