Talk:Pax Europaea

message: *What about the role of the US in securing peace in the aftermath of WWII? Surely the EU is the chief defender of stability in modern Europe, but I think the influence of the US in post-WW2 is not mentioned.--RexRex84 20:31, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as I know (and correct me if I'm wrong), the role of the US is recognized in this term, but considers it to be of secondary importance. Note however that this page is about the meaning of the term Pax Europeana, and is not about what happened in reality. See for instance the contrast of this perspective with that of Pax Americana, which attributes the peace in Europe almost  completely to American power and hegemony.

replies: text: Certainly the write up should include at least a passing mention of the contemporaneous (and presumably rival) concept of Pax Americana and some description of how they differ. 66.122.73.102 03:35, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Europeana? 

message: The first paragraph states that this peace was extended eastwards following the end of the Cold War, then goes on to state a few exceptions. The problem here is that, with the exception of the former Yugoslavia, these dares are firmly within the Cold War period, not after. I will be removing these references. If anyone objects, please state why. --Harel Newman 04:06, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Post-Cold War

message: After the Cold War this peace was extended to most of Central and Eastern Europe
Does it mean that there was no peace in Eastern Europe during Cold War?--Dojarca (talk) 11:19, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it just wasn't this peace, it was Pax Sovietsky (!) --Red King (talk) 23:19, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Hi,
I think that this concept can be interesting, but it all depends on what we mean by conflict.
According to the Wikipedia page of the word conflict and admitting that this article refers to a political concept, we should use this definition
"In political terms, "conflict" can refer to wars, revolutions or other struggles, which may involve the use of force as in the term armed conflict."
If everyone agrees, the problem is now to know who can be considered in conflict or not.
If we refer to conflict ONLY talking about wars between two states, in a very narrow sense, then I think that this concept of Pax Europaea is quite correct (but it depends also on what we consider as Europe > see next section of the discussion)
If we refer to conflict in a broader sense, I think that the Pax Europaea is very Western oriented and do not reflect the contemporary history of the continent of Europe.
Do you agree ?

replies: text: Has their been academic use of the term? Yes. Should it be explained within the context of academia? yes. Should their be more references to where such a definition comes from? yes. I think Sourcing is the major issue here. We neither can affirm or deny the existance of such a peace, see WP:Original Research. Sadads (talk) 14:41, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  What are we talking about when it comes to  "conflict" ? 

message: I'm just asking myself, which Europe is considered here ?
If we speak about the whole continent, including Russia for example, then we should emphasize the very recent conflict between Russia and Georgia.
We should not forget also the conflict between Greece and Turkey about Cyprus.
I'm sure that some others conflict can be found...

message: This conflict in Northern Ireland, United Kingdom killed and injured 3,000 people. 2% of the population were killed or injured as a result of Political violence. In context that would be like 6 million US citizens killed because of one conflict. It's also described as a 'low' level war by academics. Funkinwolf (talk) 13:04, 15 April 2017 (UTC)

thread_title: Nagorno-Karabach conflict

message: In the first paragraph, I read "Bizarrely, in 2012, despite having fomented the break up of Yugoslavia and the ensuing wars, the EU was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize."
I have no memory from my history class of what the European Union did to foment the wars in ex-Yugoslavia. A quick google search didn't give me anything. This seems like a strong opinion, which would be disputed. In such a case, shouldn't you have at least a source?
