1985 as a continuation of an earlier CANDIS publication, "The Peace Calendar", which appeared monthly between February 1983 and January 1985. Originally a simple listings sheet for Toronto-area peace events, "The Peace Calendar" had expanded into a 12-page tabloid with articles and analysis in addition to Canada-wide listings in the period immediately before the "Peace Magazine" launch."Peace Magazine" was one of the first Canadian magazines to be produced with desktop publishing software. Its website at [http://www.peacemagazine.org www.peacemagazine.org] , online since 1997, contains HTML archives of all articles published previous to the current calendar year.
The magazine has had a strong editorial emphasis on
democracy ,human rights , and the technical aspects ofdisarmament . Its writers are roughly equally distributed between activists and academics, with considerable overlap between these two spheres.
