In Choose Peace, Johan Galtung and Daisaku Ikeda - two leading figures in international peace studies - explore the interface between Buddhism and nonviolent solutions to global conflict. Far from abstract, their search inspires concrete proposals that are directly relevant to the political agendas of today, such as the death penalty, nationalism and unification, fundamentalism, arms reduction and the proliferation and supervision of nuclear technology and the role of the United Nations in peacekeeping initiatives. Presented as a dialogue between the two men, Choose Peace identifies sources of global violence and unrest and demonstrates the role of Buddhism in formulating peaceful solutions.
