Details
Peace in our time? Peace between nations can and should be achieved for the good of man and the greater glory of God. A renewed philosophy and theology of peace can exhort no less than this. Author Rev. Dr. Dimkpa carefully presents a practical approach to a workable peace, based on active war-avoidance and listening, and rooted in the social doctrine of the Church.
The author does not stop there. He also discusses obstacles to peace and emphasizes that peace is not a paradox of violent elimination of enemies. Rather, it transcends and moderates reason itself.
This timely work makes smooth the path that will set us once again along the right way towards an authentic culture of peace without war, without violence.

“In our world today when peace in personal, familial, local and international relationships seems to be played like a game of interests and more efforts are spent on the effects of failed peace than on preventing violence, we need a new set of guidelines to a more peaceful co-existence. ...”
