Featuring

George A. Lopez

Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, C.S.C., Professor of Peace Studies

This event was open to all alumni and current students of the peace studies program, their families and friends of the Kroc Institute.

Peace research shows that wars and terrorist attacks are declining in number and in some cases in lethality. Is this peace? In a world of major financial crisis, environmental concerns, and the changing conditions of violence, a peace researcher and educator of 30 years reflects on the challenges posed by the real world to the meaning and attaining of peace.
