Peace Futures in the Works of Johan Galtung
Johan Galtung (JG) founded the science of peace. Deep in his peace
works is the theme of peace futures, the arena of deep changes
through creativity, empathy and nonviolence.
This paper will attempt to present the many possible futures that Johan
Galtung has articulated in his writings and will be accompanied by a
discussion of futures thinking in the christian faith based on a new
heaven and a new earth. After the brief presentation, a polygue will be
made with the participants to articulate the nearest thoughts of Johan
Galtung on peace futures and concluded with honoring him as one of
the founders of WFSF.
This may not be categorize as a paper presentation but a workshop in
honor of JG and his thoughts of peace futures.
