The presentation examined some characteristics of the Baha'i approach to world order. It recognized that humanity's quest for the promised reconciliation of nations and global peace goes back to the promises in holy scriptures.

Understanding of the Faith's position on the relationnal concepts of order and justice can invigorate the search.
