Abstract

The core concepts of Peace Studies originated from non-Western countries, In particular, non-violence in India, balance of Yin and Yang in China, and Ubuntu in Africa and other concepts are included, although peace science originated in Europe and the United States after World War II. Many non-Western peace institutions have been set up with the influence or help of Western countries. China’s peace studies center in Nanjing also originated from the cooperation between Nanjing University and Coventry University, UK. However, the development of peace studies in China has its own characteristics. For example, peace studies in China can get more support from the governments. Africa is also a region where the development of peace studies is relatively lagging. The development of Peace Studies in African cannot only promote the overall development of Africa itself, but also promote the peace of the world.
