The Changing Dynamics of Peace Pact

Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2023, Vol 7, Issue 8

Abstract

In the Cordilleras, the peace treaty system is a tried-and-true method of resolving disputes; a reflection of respect and devotion in sustaining peace and order in the community. The theory of holism was employed in this qualitative study to reveal the shifting dynamics of the peace accord in Bontoc, Mountain Province. To correctly chronicle the peace pact process in the past and the modifications along the pechen procedures and penalties, elders from the central barangays of Bontoc who have extensive knowledge of peace pacts and have taken part in peace pact negotiations were interviewed. Thematic analysis was used to carefully lever the responses. The study reveals that the inclusion of the memorandum of agreement, together with the engagement of police enforcement as peacekeepers during negotiations, is a significant addition to the pechen system. The concept of space and material has also changed, moving away from traditional meeting spaces and objects and toward commercial goods. Also emphasized is the fact that fines are already paid in cash rather than in kind.
