A Path to a Peaceful World for the Common Good

Abstract

I wish to argue that peace, justice, peace building and non-violent conflict resolution raise important moral, ethical and spiritual concerns, which call into question what it is to be a human being. The path to peace (contrary to what is mostly practised today) is all about the world of heart, mind and spirit. In the first section, I will tell you about my own journey for peace, which has transformed me from an ‘economist as usual’ into ‘an economist for the common good’. The other sections deal with the definition of the common good and the aims of the ‘Globalisation for the Common Good Initiative’ (GCGI).
