Course Content
|
Peace is often understood as the absence of war and physical violence. While preventing war and physical violence is important, defining peace through its absence overlooks other types of violence, such as cultural and structural violence. Many individual experiences these invisible types of violence in their daily lives because of their gender, ethnicity, or beliefs. While many focused on the visible types of violence, inequality and injustices that arose from invisible violence remain unseen and unaddressed. Thus, peace is not only about a matter of control and reduction of direct use of violence, but it is about reaching equality, social justice, and emancipation. Thus, peace is a constant search for improving and developing individual lives. Consequently, this course aims to present the notion of positive peace, how different types of violence permeate societies and their implications on human development, and the ways that we, as individuals, construct and maintain peace.
