¿Si vis pacem para pacem.¿
For times immemorial man has sought to achieve a state of freedom from outer conflict guided by the pole of the above continuum designated by the Ancient Romans as ¿Si vis pacem para bellum¿, translating as ¿If you want peace, prepare for war¿. Those who deviated strongly from this implicit assumption by positioning themselves differently on the continuum and thereby reversed this logic were disappointing the mainstream cultures of their eras and were considered out-group personae non gratae by the dominant cultural players. This study shows how the dilemma could be resolved.
