Extra posting/Is our modern world more peaceful than the past?/Zhang PeiYao

Although the current trend of world development is world peace, there are still struggles in some places, mostly because of ethnic conflicts and political disputes, such as Israel and Palestine in the Middle East, the United States and Iraq. Although there are fewer wars than before, it is not a real peace. It is only a kind of superficial peace. The ideological struggle still exists. However, strengthen exchanges and integration between the nations of the world, enhance the feelings among the nations, narrow cultural differences, and achieve an understanding of religious beliefs. Handle emerging contradictions in a peaceful manner. Then, use reasonable diplomatic means to achieve the consensus of political views, seek common ground while reserving differences, and avoid the phenomenon of using force to solve problems. True peace will be realized step by step with the development of human society.
