Abstract
In the present consideration the author tries to explain on three levels a fundamental shift which occurred and changed the dynamics of the binary opposition of and peace and the globally defined area, the post-national sovereignty. Those levels are: (1) transition from the metaphysics of modern history to the production of bio-political power on a global scale between the Empires (United States, Russia and China) against rogue states which calls into question the ontological definition of the modern as a civilian, guerrilla as warfare or ethnic conflict; (2) definition of the world as a (techno-science and capital) which necessarily leads to the possibility of as the construction of events on a planetary scale; (3) review of the Enlightenment's ideas of Kant's perpetual peace in correlation with the condition of permanent state of emergency on a global level, which break up the Manichean logic “either or peace”, because we are living in an age characterized by the logic of and peace in the intervals it constructed crisis of the global security. Therefore, the question of human nature as good or bad does not make decisive philosophical meaning, and even theological problem, because the ethics of responsibility becomes only a weak appeal for the preservation of life on earth and the theology of salvation already assumed the fight against evil in the form of negative theodicy. What, then, is left of the idea of not only world history but also of the different versions of the just war at a time when terror, control and politics should decide on events in the world? The answer could not lie in the pseudo-humanization of the world and the inflation of ethical doctrine as a treatment for a technology-designed apocalypse. Instead of utopias and apocalyptic narratives, the solution lies in rethinking the constellation of techno-cybernetic thinking as the dangers that allow conditions of total mobilization and absolute construction.

If there is no war, there is no history
I will strive to show a fundamental turn in the way the dynamics of binary oppositions of war and peace take place in the planetary defined space of post-national sovereignty: (1) the transition from metaphysics modern history with binary machine of the nation-state in the biopolitical production of power on a global scale conflict between the "empire" against "rogue states" which calls into question the ontological definition of the modern war as a civil, guerrilla or ethnic conflict; (2) the definition of the world as a total mobilization which necessarily leads to the possibility of total war as the absolute construction of events at the planetary level; (3) re-examining the enlightenment idea of Kant's
What happened to the idea of "perpetual peace" which does not move from a moral postulate to a condition of political-legal realization? We have seen that instead of the purpose and legitimacy of history, contingency and the singularity of what is indefinite after the "end of history" is at work here
Summary
Whoever tries to think of the difference between war and peace in the ontological sense of the word has to clear the reasons why instead of binary oppositions, dialectical contradictions and negations on which the speculative thought of modernity was strongly built, what can come after history can no longer be preserved the difference we are talking about Why instead of this important historical epochal difference between two states, not their indefinable 'be', it should be easy to say that we live in an age without "time", the age that in the planetary-global determination is being performed by the logic too-either. This is at the same time the reason why in the 20th century, after the Second World War, history in the political meaning is understood through the attempt to fulfill universal world state It loses the character of statehood because it no longer has the territorial sovereignty of a modern nation. Its mission might be reduced to the regulation of the interest of anything that is no longer political from as they are science, technique, demography, economics, and culture in the wider sense of the word
