Political theory in the Anglo-Saxon world makes an interesting distinction between the concepts of “peace-building” and “pacification.” In Traditionis Custodes, Pope Francis, though asserting an intent to unity and amity, has not only dynamited the dialog and peace in liturgical matters but has also established himself as a “pacifier” in the Anglo-Saxon sense: one who imposes peace by force.
