Opinions over the nature of a 'just peace' are divided. In this third output of a major research project on Jus Post Bellum, Stahn, Iverson, and Easterday bring together a team of experts to argue that a just peace is not only related to form and process, but involves 'substantive' justice: a just order, a secure peace, and societal acceptance.
