This book offers fresh perspectives on the evolution of integrated strategies for peace and sustainability in the age of global transformation. Since the late 1980s, and in response to the growing detrimental effects of human activities on the environment, the shift towards sustainability has been a prominent focus for researchers and policymakers alike. At the same time, the scope of peace considerations has broadened to encompass the diverse forms and origins of conflict, ranging from inter-state to intra-state disputes driven by various social, political, economic, and environmental factors. By presenting theoretical and empirical insights, this book establishes that sustainability and peace are inherently interconnected. The book delves into the multifaceted and constantly evolving concepts of sustainability and peace. Furthermore, it contributes to a deeper understanding of the intricate and dynamic relationships between peace and sustainability by offering examples of pathways where sustainability and peace intersect, considering the diverse factors and contexts that continually shape and reshape the conditions for sustainable and peaceful societies.
