THEORIES AND
PRACTICES IN
PEACE,
VIOLENCE, AND
CONFLICT
RESOLUTION
LESSON 1
Questions:
• What is your definition of PEACE?
•What is your definition of violence?
•How is peace and violence related to each
other?
•What do you think are root causes of violence
that you see (family, environment, society)?
•Do you think people can achieve peace? How?
The meaning of Peace as the Absence of
Violence
•Two definitions of the word “PEACE” are
discussed in an effort to highlight the
dimensions of the concept.
•Peace may be defined as the ABSENCE OF
PHYSICAL AND STRUCTURAL VIOLENCE, or
peace is the absence of or reduction of
violence of all kinds. (Gatlung, 1996)
•There are two types of violence referred to in
the definition: PHYSICAL AND STRUCTURAL
VIOLENCE.
•Therefore, we can understand peace in the light
of understanding violence.
•Also, violence gives meaning to the search for
peace.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE
•Refers to the actual, visible, and
physical harm done against
people and ecosystem
(environment.)
STRUCTURAL VIOLENCE
•Refers to that non-physical type of violence
perpetuated by society.
•It is “built-in’ feature of the system itself.
•Unlike physical violence, structural violence has
no direct object.
•But its effect is far-reaching, more disturbing and
long-lasting.
•Corruption, poverty, uneven distribution of
economic resources, malnutrition and
prostitution are causes of some examples of
structural violence that in turn become
causes of some other violence in their
physical form.
•Physical violence persists in a
spiral form unless the
structural violence that
appears as its root cause is
properly addressed.
•Therefore, we can say that the definition of
peace is related to violence. To understand
peace we have to understand violence.
•In this respect, the affirmation of peace is the
negation of violence.
•Thus when there is NO violence, there is PEACE.
Conversely, when there is NO PEACE, there is
VIOLENCE.
In conclusion…
•Peace and violence are opposites.
The absence of one is necessary for
the existence of the other. That is
why the call for peace is intense in
the midst of violence.
