world peace

Universal human concord

World peace is the ideal of global harmony—the absence of war, violence, and armed conflict among nations.

The concept implies not just the cessation of hostilities but cooperation and mutual understanding across borders.

Often invoked as an aspiration: She said her dream was world peace.

The phrase appears frequently in beauty pageant answers and idealistic rhetoric, sometimes mockingly: And I'm hoping for world peace while I'm at it.
