Synopsis
The peoples of the Earth have a sacred right to peace. This is the conviction and the theme of this new book by Douglas Roche, who builds upon a long career in politics, diplomacy and social activism in examining the requirements for peace in the post-September 11th world. The right to peace has already been defined by the United Nations, but its meaning has been muted by the continuation of the war culture, even though the Cold War ended a dozen years ago. The UN is now working to animate the Right to Peace so it can finally take its place among the other recognized human rights that breathe life into the international system. Far from "changing the world," the terrorist attacks of September 2001 were a brutal introduction to the world of insecurity and fear that is commonplace for much of humanity. In a world where our destinies are increasingly held in common, a culture of peace can bring genuine hope to the lives of millions who need and want to be uplifted from the horrors of daily life. Our very survival demands success in being able to do so.
Roche is constantly travelling and will be promoting this book everywhere; he goes for his last 6 months in the Senate Event at the UN in New York."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; name inside front cover; otherwise as new; The peoples of the Earth have a sacred right to peace. This is the conviction of Douglas Roche's book. Some people discount the emerging right to peace, doubting that it can be achieved in a world driven by an excessive militarism. Roche shows that wars are not inevitable and that the modern world possesses the creativity and political and legal tools to resolve conflict without war. Achieving peace is within our reach, but it requires a fundamental change in our attitudes. Seller Inventory # 005056
