This book compiles the messages written by Paul VI and John Paul II on the occasion of the World Day of Peace from 1968 to 1998. It includes a letter, a presentation, and an introduction to guide the reader, as well as a thematic index and a bibliography on peace and human rights. An appendix with a specific bibliography from the Pontifical Commission Justice and Peace is also offered. The pontifical messages, although not constituting a systematic set of ideas on peace, invite a Christian reflection on the problems of peace in today's society and to take responsibility in building a world of peace.
Pope John Paul II was head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of Vatican City from 16 October 1978 until his death in 2005. He was the first non-Italian pope since Adrian VI in the 16th century, as well as the third-longest-serving pope in history, after St. Peter and Pius IX.
