Abstrakt: Johan Galtung, known as the "Father of Peace Studies," passed away at the age of 93. He was a renowned peace researcher and author of over 100 books and 1,000 scholarly articles on world peace. Galtung redefined peace as the opposite of violence and introduced the concept of "positive peace," which includes justice. He expanded the study of peace beyond military security and focused on social justice and the root causes of conflict. Galtung's work influenced peace advocates around the world and his ideas continue to inspire those who seek peaceful alternatives to war and injustice. [Extracted from the article]
