CONCEPTS OF PEACE
GROUP 3
CONCEPT OF PEACE
It is well known that human beings pay much interest in peace
from the ancient time until now. Because the word ―peace, apart from
being a pleasant word, also refers to the peaceful society and the beautiful
world. It can be stated that peace is the greatest and highest goal or hope
that everyone wishes to achieve personally and expects to be created in
society and in the world.
PEACE CONCEPT
is a thing that interests all. Peace is understood by all; if it
prevailed on earth, our world would have had only happiness and
would have become a heaven for human beings.
peace is not something that exists alone by not being related
to anything and people study peace in depth and widely, eventually there
are varieties of concepts and perspectives on peace.
Here are some of the peace concepts:
concept of human rights for peace
concept of justice for peace
concept of nonviolence for peace
concept of peace education
concept of peace culture,
concept of peace gender
concept of peace media
concept of peace
environment
1. CONCEPT OF HUMAN RIGHTS FOR PEACE
Human rights are ―basic rights and
freedoms that all people are
entitled to regardless of nationality,
67%
sex, national or ethnic origin, race,
religion, language, or other status.
Human rights are conceived as
universal and egalitarian, with all people
having equal rights by virtue of
being human. It has been said that: ―if the
public discourse of
peacetime global society can be said to have a 67%
common moral language,
it is that of human rights.
Peace and human rights are necessary for each other.
Peace without human rights would be a weak and flawed peace. People
cannot be said to be living in peace if their human rights are violated, as the
structural and institutional violence inherent in human rights abuse is the
antithesis of peace.
In the sense of applicably studying of human rights, right to peace is one of
human rights.
2. CONCEPT OF JUSTICE FOR PEACE
Justice is the concept of moral
rightness based on ethics,
rationality, law, natural law, religion,
fairness, or equity. Justice
concerns itself with the proper ordering
of things and people within a society.
There are variations of justice.
Utilitarianism is a form of consequentialism, where
punishment is forward-looking.
Retributive justice - regulates proportionate response to crime proven
by lawful evidence, so
that punishment is justly imposed and considered as morally correct
and fully deserved.
Restorative justice - is concerned not so much with
retribution and punishment as with; (a) making the
victim whole and (b) reintegrating the
offender into society.
Distributive justice is directed at the proper allocation
of things — wealth, power, reward, respect — among
different people.
3. CONCEPT OF PEACE EDUCATION
Peace education is a broad field and can be
difficult to define.
Very simply, peace education empowers learners
with the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values
necessary to end violence and injustice and
promote a culture of peace.
4. CONCEPT OF A CULTURE OF PEACE
The concept of a Culture of Peace arose at the
end of the Cold War. For the first time, the
objective for which the United Nations was
founded, the abolition of war, had become
feasible.
A culture of peace aims for the transformation of values, attitudes
and behaviors within each individual, leading to a culture shaped by
peace, rather than by war and violence.
A culture of peace represents an everyday attitude of nonviolence,
and fierce determination to defend human rights and human
dignity.
5. CONCEPT OF PEACE GENDER
Great importance to contemporary research into peace-building
concems gender relations. Feminist scholars have long argued
that organized violence is primarily a functional of gender
imbalance and of patriarchal social relations. They point to the
fact that in those few societies where women have held
significant. cultural and spiritual power, organized group
violence has been relatively rare.
6. CONCEPT OF PEACE MEDIA
The role of the mass media as a major player in the formation of attitudes
to war, violence, and peace-building is a 20th-century phenomenon, with
the paramount role played by television and, to a lesser but still vital
extent, by radio, both products of advanced technological communications
systems Spreading anti-enemy propaganda through controlling the media
has become a feature of modem warfare and was a key element of the
Second World War and in the subsequent Cold War on both sides of the
Iron Curtain.
7.CONCEPT OF PEACE ENVIRONMENT
The Rio Declaration on Environment and Development
was signed by 178 countries It signifies that the
global community of states formally acknowledges
that there is a connection between peace, human
welfare and environmental protection.
