About Marta

Achieving peace is a complex affair. The right answer cannot be found by focusing on one specialty alone, be it international relations, political science, rule of law, or international law. Rather, one must take a holistic approach, looking at a broad spectrum of factors. We can talk about of peace when there is an escalation of armed conflict. This is where my expertise starts.
