Peace Studies constitute an element often mentioned among the theoretical proposals in the framework of what came to be known as the “fourth debate”, coming to contest the deepest assumptions of the realist and positivist approaches in international relations. In this text I seek to clarify how that identity of the Peace Studies School was constructed on the basis of negotiations regarding inner tensions in its own discourse. Afterwards, I will argue about a des-virtualization of peace studies, questioning the avenues for possible rescuing of its original critical and emancipatory meaning in current days.
