Promena konteksta delovanja mirovnih instituta posle Hladnog rata

Abstract

Članak se bavi razvojem i društvenom ulogom mirovnih instituta tokom trajanja Hladnog rata i nakon njegovog završetka. Razlozi nastanka, specijalizacije i porasta broja mirovnih instituta tumače se kroz uticaj političkog, ekonomskog i ideološkog aspekta hladnoratovskog okruženja. Kroz pet specifičnih faza prikazuje se razvoj institucionalizacije istraživanja mira. U članku se zastupa teza da je hladnoratovsko okruženje pogodovalo razvoju mirovnih instituta i da su promenjeni ekonomski i politički uslovi krajem Hladnog rata uticali da globalni značaj mirovnih instituta opadne iako društvene potrebe za njima nisu smanjene nestankom bipolarnog poretka.

The article deals with development and the social role of peace institute during the Cold War and after its end. Reasons for the creation, specialization and growth of the number of peace institutes are interpreted through the influence of the political, economic and ideological aspect of the Cold War environment. The development of the institutionalization of peace research is shown through five specific stages. The paper presents the thesis that the Cold War environment favored the development of peace institutes, and that the changed economic and political conditions at the end of the Cold War induced the reduction of the global importance of peace institutes even though the social needs for them have not decreased with the disappearance of a bipolar order.
