In class we discussed:

Peace Society: Respected views (inclusive, bringing into group), active discussions of acceptance, understanding- even if there is no agreement, city or country infrastructure, no unhoused people, bustling marketplaces, Mom and Pop stores, clean/quiet/sanitary spaces, fairs and festivals. Equal opportunities for education and employment Money spent of parks and recreation

Peace Personal: laughter, calm spaces like the ocean, not being worried, exercise, safety to exercise, access to nature,

War society: High military spending, trash everywhere, no employment, food shortages, low population, what does military spending look like when countries are at peace vs. war?

War Personal: grief, some things that are peaceful can also be war internally, number of business open, or types of business available to certain socio economic tiers.
