The concept of peace is “fetishized” within statist power as it has a specific use-value. The constant state of flux present in contemporary societies requires new concepts of peace to be enacted and circulated, shifting from transactional to transformational notions of peace.
The Fetish of Peace: The Myth of Transformational Peace is a critical theoretical exploration of the ways in which the concept of peace is utilized and managed by the international arena and statist systems, distinctive in that the concept of peace is consistently employed in various performances by the state, and international systems, to address serious issues/problems in the international community. Despite all the rhetoric of peace and actions taken in the name of peace, we find ourselves within the same cycle of violence.
