BORDA SOSA, Yamil. Conflicts and their cycles between peace and war. Revista de Psicologia [online]. 2023, n.30, pp.119-136. ISSN 2223-3032.  https://doi.org/10.53287/ypkd7581ip78y.

This article is framed in a historical period where the possibility of maintaining peace has once again been defeated. The specter of conflict reached its peak with a fratricidal war that no one expected, and even worse when it threatens a catastrophic outcome for humanity; therefore we ask ourselves again, why war?

It is difficult to understand human positions from psychoanalysis to the philosophy of peace to the old geopolitical conception of war, to whom or what we attribute the breakdown of peace. States, despite understanding peace, are led to defend their interests even if it means their own destruction, then the conflict in its cycle from peace to war cannot be controlled. Currently, the war between Russia and Ukraine not only promotes concern and reflection on the reasons for war, but it must also lead to agreed positions of the international community that perpetuate imperfect peace.

Keywords : Conflict; War; Peace; World order; Geopolitics.
