Description
Summary:This paper deals conceptually with social  representations and their relationship to aspects of positive peace and negative peace. The purpose of this essay is to address theoretical elements about the concepts of negative peace and positive peace that affect social representations (SR). For this purpose, the concepts were researched and an analysis of their content was carried out for reflection. It is concluded that the reflections and analysis of theoretical elements about the concepts of negative peace and positive peace allow us to recognize that many of the meanings of peace that arise from reality are constructed by the influence of concepts that govern social systems, culture and institutions and, to a great extent, social representations about peace are shaped by the influence of information mediated by an intention.
