- Peace includes the absence of personal or direct violence in addition to the presence of social justice.
Mische, 1987
- Negative peace means the absence of both war and physical or direct violence.
- Positive peace means the presence of just, non-exploitative relationships, in addition to human and ecological well-being for diminishing conflict.
- Human survival depends on nature's unimpaired capacity.
