- Abstract
Contemporary peace studies have been laid emphasis on macro affairs for many years. These issues are disarmament, demilitarization, collective reintegration of paramilitaries and some legal texts. Also these technical and legal mechanisms are the main reasons of the conflict. So they need to be solved first for the end of the violence or for the damping of the violence. However, the use of symbols and rituals, which constitute cultural violence and are considered secondary issues, should certainly not be overlooked. Because the political use of symbols and symbolic action pushes violent conflict to the smallest unit of society. In a social context where potential violence continues, it is almost impossible to make social peace permanent. Important studies on the political use of symbols and symbolism have been published in the literature of peace studies especially after 2000 years. Theorists who are interested in the subject together with these studies now realize that symbols have critical value for peace processes in the positive or negative sense. Can we consider this route as an alternative route? What are the main axes of discussion about the symbolic and symbolic use of symbols? In this study, we will try to find answers to the above questions in the guidance of peace process examples in the world.
