This thought-provoking hardback, spanning 110 pages, delves into the complex relationship between peace and state power. Campos argues that the concept of peace is often "fetishized" for its utility within statist frameworks, highlighting the need for a paradigm shift in how we understand and implement peace in our rapidly changing world.
