ABSTRACT

This paper has the objective of reflecting on the trajectory of pacifism and non-violence as methods to denounce the injustices and abuses imposed by the violation of human rights. It explores some of the difficulties of the methodology used by advocates of non-violence and pacifism to expose violence as illegitimate – whichever kind of violence it may be. Some of the universal characteristics common to the science of conscientiology are presented here; exposing as well, specific approaches and methods that several of the conscientiological subdisciplines offer to attain the level of Homo pacificus.
