Abstract

The predominance of culture of violence in contemporary society legitimizes it. In this context, Peace Studies emerge from a multidisciplinary perspective, aiming to put in evidence the structures of direct, structural, and cultural violence in order to provide alternatives for the construction of a culture of peace. Communications and journalism can help legitimizing culture of violence or culture of peace. Therefore, Peace Journalism proposes new journalistic practices: media communications, when in contact with Peace Studies, angles towards cultural diversity, social injustice structures, and responsible public opinion.
