Três formas de violência, três formas de paz. A paz, a guerra e a formação social indo-europeia

In social formations, forms of violence coexist with forms of peace. This article analyzes the coexistence, in the Indo-European social formation, of cultural violence (the production of ideas that justify the other forms of violence) with cultural peace (cooperation and empathy with all forms of life); of direct violence (physical elimination of the other) with direct peace (non-violent forms of control, with positive sanctions); and of structural violence (systemic mechanisms of injustice and death) with structural peace (the fulfillment of basic needs and the distribution of goods and services).
