Peace is a condition in which all interactions amont humans are nonviolent.
Basic Concept
It is frequently argued that peace is not possible because humans are violent. I'd like to bring some context into consideration: Most humans today are violent (in some respects) in the conditions they live in. I believe, however, that for each human, there exist conditions in which they do not use any violence. The peace challenge is to attain such a condition for all people at the same time. This is obviously not trivial, and there is no straightforward proof that such global peace conditions even exist.
However, as it is possible that global peace conditions exist, mankind should continue to try to attain such a condition.
Current Problems and Challenges
- too much competition, too little cooperation
- militarism
- too little education
