description The question about the possibility to stablish a peace culture arises from the fact that the deepest roots of peace are buried in the geographical individual emotions in such a way, that it is a requirement to understand which are the internal forces that have led to so many forms of violence in daily life as well as the resources available to offset the negative effects in general, and for personal experiences. Two emotions are reviewed: anger and compassion as its best antidote. Understanding the peculiar cognitive structure of each one, will allow us to evaluate its normative function, and above all, to emphasize according to Nussbaum and Thich Nhat Hanh, there is a natural transitional progression from the first towards the second one, with a privileged mechanism towards a just and democratic community.

La pregunta por la posibilidad de construir una cultura de paz se aborda desde la convicción de que la paz hunde sus raíces en la geografía emocional de cada persona, de manera que es preciso comprender tanto cuáles son las fuerzas internas que han conducido a las múltiples formas de violencia en la vida cotidiana, como los recursos con que se cuenta para contrarrestar sus efectos en las narrativas personales y políticas. Se exploran en particular dos emociones: la ira y la compasión como su mejor antídoto. Comprender la peculiar estructura cognitiva de cada una permite evaluar su papel normativo y, sobre todo, destacar cómo, según Nussbaum y Thich Nhat Hanh, hay una suerte de transición natural de la primera hacia la segunda, dispositivo privilegiado hacia una comunidad política justa y democrática. A questão da possibilidade de construir uma cultura de paz é abordada a partir da convicção de que a paz tem suas raízes na geografia emocional de cada pessoa, por isso é necessário entender tanto quais são as forças internas que levaram às múltiplas formas da violência na vida cotidiana, como os recursos disponíveis para neutralizar seus efeitos nas narrativas pessoais e políticas. Duas emoções são exploradas em particular: ira e compaixão como seu melhor antídoto. Compreender a estrutura cognitiva peculiar de cada uma permite avalia o seu papel regulador e, sobretudo, para destacar como, de acordo com Nussbaum e Thich Nhat Hanh, há uma espécie de transição natural a partir da primeira para a segunda, dispositivo privilegiado para uma comunidade política justa e democrática.
