Keywords:
Human Community, Human Freedom, Development, Peace, HumanityAbstract
In this paper, we examine the consideration of the value of Peace as it necessarily
engenders the course of human sociological development, it emphasises the
union of peace and development as it reflects man's current quest of advancement.
It is about the attainment of peace and justice that will engender the all-round
development in human society. This is because; we ascertained that the embrace
of the reign of peace is the inevitable entrance of positive effectual development
and growth, at both individual and communal level. Then, peace is humanity
itself. The conclusion is drawn on the value man places on his life, rights and
dignity when he pleases to exercise his freedom and intellect, then, human
sociological development is possible.
