III. Safeguarding Peace
2304
Respect for and development of human life require peace. Peace is not merely
the absence of war, and it is not limited to maintaining a balance of powers
between adversaries. Peace cannot be attained on earth without safeguarding the
goods of persons, free communication among men, respect for the dignity of
persons and peoples, and the assiduous practice of fraternity. Peace is
“the tranquillity of order.”97 Peace is the work of justice
and the effect of charity.98
