Abstract

The concept of peace includes the phenomenon of the lack of conflict and the existence of a healthy climate of human relations, inside and outside the country. So, we could also include the existence of harmony in social relations, economical welfare, the climate of equality, and justice in political relations or said in a more concentrated way, the picture of a state without war and conflicts. But another definition for peace includes even keeping the balance in human relations, tolerance, and the way of resolving problems through dialog and deals between the two conflicted groups. Peace is a typical and a dominating element in a democratic society, because it is built on the strong foundations of respect for the universal law of freedom and human rights. However, the concept of peace, has not escaped from the different interpretations varying on the circumstances and conditions of the existence of a population, culture and cultural level it inherits, also historical and political context of the time. The study analyzes some of the philosophical concepts on peace, its evolution in the flow of history and the need of it in our modern era. Thus, for accomplishing this research, I referred to different books dealing with relevant subjects such as peace and conflict, by using the method of analyzing and interpreting.
