Abstract
The Western security community has increasingly militarized its politics of peace, through peacekeeping, peace-making and other policies to which the ‘peace’ prefix has been attributed. Peace has become a virtual concept, which at times disguises rather violent management techniques of ‘global governance’. Peace, within this framework, is a practice and a policy, mantled by a narrative of a liberal, and teleological, desire for non-violence. Non-violence towards the governing institutions became viewed as peace, advancing the notion of ‘peace-as-order’. A teleology of liberal development helped to securitize the ‘not-yet-liberalized Other’, excluding non-liberal concepts from the idea of peace. Like the baby thrown out with the bathwater, peace lost its emancipatory content. A particular peace is the result, which includes transitional justice or reconciliation as rhetorical devices for its legitimization. However, the practice of ‘peace’ leaves these processes to the ‘losers’; lasting peace between equals remains elusive and the politics of peace an exercise in managing security.
