Abstract

This study aims at pointing out the tools of peace and the approaches to conflict management and resolution presented in the Islamic and Western perspectives. It also searches for clarifying the convergent and divergent zones that could help in finding, analyzing and criticizing the basic concepts on which arguments and debates are constructed. This study concluded that the differences between the Islamic and the Western perspective are a human requirement for acquainting and integrating based on a crucial notion, which is identity. Identity is treated in details in many discourses and occupies a large place in the Western literature on international relations, mainly as a reason of wars and clashes, and instead of transforming it into a tool of coexistence and cooperation, it has been obliterated and replaced by another concepts, such as; universalism, assimilation, globalization, secularism.
