But the Center was closed in 1971 both because its members becameinvolved in political activism and because of lack of funds. 1959: The Peace Research Institute Oslo founded by Johan Galtung in Norway. It nowhas a staff of 75 and is regarded as the world’s “oldest and most prominent peaceresearch center.” It publishes the well-respected Journal of Peace Research, andsponsors the “PRIO Annual Peace Address” to increase understanding about theconditions for peace in the world. 1963: Manhattan College in Riverdale, New York, established a Peace and JusticeStudies program in response to Pope John XXIII encyclical Pacem in Terris, on“establishing peace in truth, justice, charity and liberty.” 1966: The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute was established inStockholm. 1971: The Department of Peace and Conflict Research is established at UppsalaUniversity in Sweden. 1973: The University of Bradford in West Yorkshire, U.K., established a Department ofPeace Studies, now the largest university center in the world for peace studies andconflict resolution.1
