"Comparative anthropology has clearly shown that peace becomes sustainable and effective when societies establish mechanisms of reciprocity, dialogue, and understanding to process their conflicts. It’s not just about avoiding open confrontations but building trust in fair treatment and a sense of shared community. These conditions are essential for abolishing multiple forms of violence and ultimately reveal that justice is the indispensable foundation of all lasting peace: without justice, there is no absence of violence, and without the absence of violence, there can be no true peace."
