at 22mins - great point made about global deaths from war have decreased in recent times ... but with regions of increased levels of violence (hot spots) the threat to peace and conflict services undermines there legitimacy and public peceptions are too undermined. A dangerous path if deaths from war are to continue a downward trajectory.

27mins 'what is the nature of peace?'

The question, what would Gandhi have done against Hitler is a funny one. They both lived at the same time and would have known about each other and both would have had a lot to say about the other and would have said what they would do if they faced each other directly. And they did face each other internationally. And Gandhi won.
