Abstract

The affirmation pathway for investigating peace as a discipline shows different periods of identity crisis, expressed in extensive epistemological debates. Due to the growth of this dilemma, three structural and essential issues that this text seeks to delimit are in question in the investigation for peace. The first is the reach of its orientation for concrete values and policies. The second is the definition of its place in a disputed cognitive territory. And the third is the density of nonviolence in political transformation processes.
