PEACE STUDIES AND THE VISION OF DEMOCRATIC PEACE IN THE AGE OF LIBERALISM: A THEORETICAL ANALYSIS

Abstract

Liberal IR theory that had focused to the aim of preventing wars after the World War I, would manifest itself in Peace Studies following the World War II. In order to avoid war, Peace Studies tends to incline social mentality and substructure which pave the way for the wars, instead of making research at the level of interstate relations. Democratic peace theory as one of crucial ideas of the post-Cold War era also refers to the importance of normative values just as Peace Studies and indicates necessity to build structural conditions of peace to prevent international wars. In this respect, it has an obvious relationship of continuity with liberal IR theory and Peace Studies.
