The Dimensions of War and Peace that Can't be Neglected: Ecophilosophy & PaxologyReviewed - Review
The author explains some terms being neglected in the last few years. War is one of many ways for implementing policy, but actually it is self-breeding and at the same time its own last source. The hypertrophy of available means for warfare creates the atrophy of its functions and consequently even its reason. War is still an extreme choice, bringing about the danger of total devastation of humane environment. It's strange that environmentalists do not put their protests to this centre of gravity. On the contrary, many of them regard wars as natural thing, originated in the very nature of humane dispositions. It has its source probably in the fact that there is no self-contained theory dealing with war and peace, the so-called paxology-the theory how peace can be maintained in the world.
Keywords: Politics, war, warfare, peace, maintaining peace, paxology, environment, environmentalism, ecophilosophy, nuclear age.
