A World Without War: ‘Abdu’l-Bahá and the Discourse for Global Peace marks the centenary of the revelation and delivery of the letters to The Hague in June 1920. It sets out a Baha’i perspective on peace, by examining ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s (head of the religion after the passing of his father, the founder of the Baha’i Faith) contribution to discourse through the talks He delivered during His travels in the West, His association with peace groups and leaders of thought, and His detailed letters addressed to the Central Organization for a Durable Peace at The Hague on a global, all-inclusive vision of peace and the barriers to peace. The authors attempt to set all of this within the context of what was happening in the world at the time and will be discussing their new volume with moderator, Mr Vafa Valapour.
