Lecture by Prof. Dr. Johan Galtung at the University of Antwerp (Belgium)
Johan Galtung (°1930, Oslo) is the founder of the discipline of peace studies. He established the International Peace Research Institute Oslo, Oslo (1959), the forerunner of many similar research centers. He also set up the Journal of Peace Research and founded TRANSCEND-A Peace Development Environment Network.
His work has a unique imprint on many scholarly disciplines; it is a combination of systematic scientific inquiry and a Gandhian ethics of peaceful means and harmony. His many honorary doctorates and distinctions do not restrain him from being active and committed.
