separated from peacebuilding in order to accomplish sustainable peace and vice versa, although they also can contradict each other at the
same time. Mr. Alistair Edgar made a detailed analysis of complex controversies surrounding the notion, process, and practice that
“Justice and Peacebuilding” have, based on his personal observations in Afghanistan, Cambodia, Kosovo, and Uganda. Professor Yuji Suzuki
moderated a discussion participated by a number of students and visitors from the UN system including Mr. Harada of UNMIS. Profesor
