What does "pace" mean in this context?
In the Economist this week:
People have, pace vegetarians, evolved to love meat, which contains many
necessary nutrients, and especially protein, in higher concentrations than
plants do
I'm used to pace meaning "the speed at which one is moving." Is there
another meaning to this word that makes sense in this context, other than
perhaps "Slow down, vegetarians! Don't be too hasty to rip into us"
