The text explores various perspectives on peace theory and practice through a collection of essays by different authors. It begins with an introduction to the significance and objectives of peace theory. The discourse includes a critical examination of the evolving nature of warfare and the historical context of violence, questioning whether a shift towards peace is feasible. Contributions discuss foundational principles for understanding and addressing violence from a peace ethics viewpoint, while also addressing the implications of democracy on conflict management. The concept of the "democratic peace" is scrutinized, particularly regarding its potential dual-use capacity and its impact on international relations. The behavior of democracies towards non-democracies in conflict situations is analyzed, alongside discussions on the relationship between peace zones and areas of turmoil from both theoretical and legal perspectives. The collection also highlights the challenges and opportunities for peace within the global society, emphasizing the need for a constructive approach to contemporary threats and conflicts. Additionally, it touches on the German-American discourse surrounding just war theory and its implications for normative international relations. Overall, the essays collectively aim to deepen the understanding of peace in a complex global landscape.
