Scientific Study from the year 2013 in the subject Sociology - War and Peace, Military, , course: Peace Research, language: English, abstract: In 1970, when East and West were about to meet and to possibly invalidate the historical assumption formulated by the British p oet Rudyard Kipling, according to which such meeting of Eastern and Western minds was impossible, a Japanese by the name of Itsuo Tsuda, who brought with him the knowledge that would not only enable the meeting between East and West, but even that of humanity as a whole, discretely settled in Paris. In his person Sino-Japanese thought converged and merged into something new that our age greatly needed and continues to do so in the foreseeable time. I would like to call it the art of converting war into peace.
