The authors track the rise of peace as a new phenomenon in international history starting after 1945.\u003cbr\u003eInternational peace has increased because international society has developed a set of norms dealing with territorial conflict, by far the greatest source of international war over previous centuries. These norms prohibit the use of military force in resolving territorial disputes and acquiring\u003cbr\u003eterritory, thereby promoting border stability. This includes the prohibition of the acquisition of territory by military means as well as attempts by secessionist groups to form states through military force. International norms for managing international conflict have been accompanied by increased\u003cbr\u003emediation and adjudication as means of managing existing territorial conflicts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gary Goertz, Paul F.
