WORLD PEACE INDEX 2020

PEACE is not just the absence of war but the presence of justice, of law, of order - in short: DEMOCRACY!

PEACE is a virtue and also a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice.

We are getting used to PEACE being the normal default state in Europe and the civilized world.

But this balance and this peace mindset and normality is still fragile. Peace was just the temporary absence of war for many centuries.

And, if we are not careful and involved, after CoVid19, after the isolation and nationalists tendencies, after the extremist ideas are getting more popular these days, after may authoritarian or at least 'controversial' leaders gain power, Peace may be threaten.

The Institute for Economics & Peace (IEP) is an independent, non-partisan, non-profit think tank dedicated to shifting the world’s focus to peace as a positive, achievable, and tangible measure of human well-being and progress.

This is their GLOBAL PEACE INDEX for 2020!
