Abstract
Ethnic literature and studies around the world and in Iran in the last three decades, with the collapse of the Soviet Union, the emergence of ethnic conflicts in a number of countries and the new wave of globalization has grown and expanded. Corresponding to the many and costly experiences resulting from conflicts and conflicts within the national borders of countries, in the field of ethnic studies, works and extensive literature have been produced, created, reproduced and distributed. With such an introduction, this study seeks to answer the key question of how the knowledge of ethnic studies relates to peace. In general, has the production and scientific literature of this field been able to soften the atmosphere of this field and communicate with the concept of peace, including peace in its classical and negative sense, or peace in the positive and new sense?
While the core, the main orientation and outcome of peace is focused on forgiveness, forgiveness and sacrifice, dialogue, negotiation and negotiation, reconciliation, satisfaction, softness and friendship, and finally reconciliation; The core and spirit of ethnic research is the production and formulation of the literature on "differentiation" and "separation" of identity. Literature produced in the science of ethnic studies with a focus on "diversity" as a fact and a value; "Identifying and fulfilling the demands of multiple ethnic identities" is the focus of his efforts. This science is semantically, conceptually, theoretically, appropriately, methodically and in a space influenced by "critical approach to modernism", especially "the manner and process of state-nation-building", "malfunctions of modern governments" and "expansion of globalization literature". Knowledge is found in the sphere of thinking, the dominance of discourse and sometimes empathy. Perhaps in a critical approach it can be argued that this literature in some cases under the protection of distributive justice and restorative violence examines violent divergent movements with empathy and perhaps the institution and the state-nation as the most important human political structure in the form of idealistic rhetoric has caused a crisis of legitimacy and identity.
The present study tries to use a qualitative-exploratory method to measure and evaluate the relationship between these studies and peace, which is innovative in its kind
