Peace in the Korean peninsula is impossible without Peace in Asia, and Peace in Asia will become the pathway to world peace.

In contrast to many contemporary approaches, the theory provides normative guidance, rather than focusing solely on political structures and institutions, as the question of justice is seen to comprise both a moral inquiry concerned with questions of good and bad, right and wrong, and a political inquiry, concerned with the nature of the polity and how individuals relate to it.
