Abstract

The end of the Cold War not only helps to end the destructive arms race, but also profoundly alters the major international balances. The United States was able to reap huge peace dividends, thanks to the acceleration of economic productivity, and Washington became the greatest economic and military power. However, for some regions (Africa) or countries (Russia), the human cost of the globalisation process has been very high, while the sovereignty of peoples has been indirectly questioned. Peace is both necessary and the conditions for its sustainable realisation requires major investments.
