Abstract

Establishing peace and securing peace over a long period of time obviously requires much more than finding ways and designing tools for preventing wars. Wars are just symptoms of diseases related to the character of man, the way people organise themselves and communicate with each other. To give peace a real chance, these underlying diseases have to be localised, identified and finally cured. This constitutes a highly complicated and extremely time-consuming task, which requires a major effort of all of mankind, the engagement of their most imaginative and clever minds.
