关于“和平”的理解

Understanding on "Peace"

和平自古以来就是人们最美好的愿望,现在更是主流话语体系中使用最频繁的词汇,已经很少有人不会意识到和平对人类生存与发展至关重要的意义。人们对和平的认识却十分模糊和含混,不仅在不同文化语境中具有不同的内涵,而且要想对和平进行非常精确的界定确实十分困难。

Peace has been man＇s finest desire ever since ancient times, and it has become the most frequently used word in the mainstream speech system nowadays that few would neglect its significance for the existence and development of mankind. However, man＇s cognition of peace is rather illegible and confused. Not only does it possess different connotation in different cultural context, but it is indeed difficult to give an accurate definition to the word of peace.
