Guerra y paz

Abstract

IN SPITE OF BEING A DRAMATIC, TRANSCENDENT AND GLOBAL SOCIAL OCCURRENCE, IT IS, AT LEAST SURPRISING HOW LITTLE ATTENTION THE SOCIAL SCIENCES HAVE PAID TO THE PHENOMENON OF WAR. HOWEVER, IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE A COMPLETE UNDERSTANDING OF ITS NATURE AND, EVEN, REAL KNOWLEDGE ON THE POSSIBILITIES FOR PEACE, AN INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH WILL BE NECESSARY. THUS, THE PATH TO PEACE WILL REQUIRE DEEP TRANSFORMATIONS OF A PSYCHOLOGICAL, SOCIAL, POLITICAL ECONOMIC AND CULTURAL NATURE AND, THEREFORE, THE CONFIGURATION OF A WORLD ORDER THAT IS QUITE REMOVED FROM ITS CURRENT COORDINATES.
