Abstract

In everyday life, people often establish a link between peace and emotional experiences such as compassion for victims, revenge with perpetrators, forgiveness of unforgivable acts, terror before war, hatred among conflict actors, recognition of guilt for violent acts, confidence in a better future, among others. Such link is inadvertent or unweighted by objectivist investigations of peace, which tend to emphasize links that they consider more valid, such as those that refer to causes of violent acts or the resolution of conflicts through rational procedures. The present article has a dual purpose: on one hand, to maintain that the objetcivist perspectives on the peace are insufficient and impersonal; and, on the other hand, to show peace as a personal ethos essentially linked to emotional experiences. Palavras-chave : Peace; Emotions; Appraisal; Vulnerability; Dignity.
