CIVILIZATION MODERNITY AND CONTINUAL TRANQUILITY 
 

Warty Sayady 

Ph.D. Student Of International Relations – Akdeniz University, Turkey 

 

INTRODUCTION 

In 1990, when David Davies established the 
International Section his goal was to prevent 
war, twenty years later the field witnessed 
commitments to change the world based on 
normative views and the purpose of academic 
studies in this field was to make the world a 
better place, in this regard an idealistic vision 
emerged in the perspective of how the world 
should be, and the opposite view which is famous 
for realism deals with the world as it is, but the 
common ground in all the academic affairs of 
international relations is the concern for 
tranquility and the avoidance of war in 
international relations. In the contemporary 
world with the end of the Second World War the 
process of modernity has begun and day by day 
is increasing its speed and power to change the 
world and today it has such an abundant 

potential that has influenced all aspects of 
human life and caused big changes. “In the 
context of the Third World Order 
cosmopolitanism is becoming an important force 
in the world in the form of culture, civil society 
ties, transnational societies and technologies”, 
where mass media, transnational corporations, 
the flow of human beings, tourism,… and the 
growing interconnectedness of the economy, 
culture, politics have been created, it is no longer 
possible to speak of politics among governments 
only by ignoring transnational actors, social 
networks, and political institutions that restrict 
the nation government. In addition, international 
cooperation formed after the end of the Second 
World War, developed beyond most of the 
traditional areas of economic exchanges and 
military security and includes issues such as the 
environment, health, and crime which go far 
beyond the national borders [2]. Modernity and 

ABSTRACT  
 
Preventing war and expanding international tranquillity has always been one of the major concerns of the 
scientific and academic circles of international relations and therefore the recognition of the nature and 
discourse governing international relations is of particular importance. On the other hand the new 
phenomenon of modernity is a very influential element in the relations between the state and social forces 
which has particularly affected the human political social and civilization arenas in the past two decades. And 
in the meantime international tranquillity can spread as much as possible through the expansion of 
civilization ties. Therefore the present paper seeks to explore the role of modernity of political culture in 
global tranquillity expansion as one of the new areas in studies related to modernity. Obviously the present 
paper seeks to answer the question of how modernity of political culture has had an impact on international 
tranquillity. 
 
 
KEYWORDS: - Modernity of Political Culture, Global Tranquillity, International Relations, Democracy, 
Human Rights.

global networks have changed the way of 
diplomacy, military issues, economic relations 
between countries, the role of NGOs and 
intergovernmental organizations in international 
relations. [3] Based on the effects of modernity in 
human life different branches of this process 
have been taken such as modernity of the 
economy, modernity of politics, modernity of 
culture and modernity of security; but modernity 
from the viewpoint of political culture which the 
most important elements of it are “democracy”, 
“human rights”, “pluralism”, and civilization 
“negligence and tolerance”, has greatly 
influenced international tranquility and changed 
its quality. In the context of modernity in the 
field of culture and along with it political cultures 
has been shaped by dual themes, some believe 
that civilization modernity is conducive to the 
proximity of cultures and homogeneity among 
nations and contributes to the strengthening of 
global tranquility. But the other emphasis is on 
expanding the diversity and civilization 
complexities of modernity, although, each of 
these spectra of thoughts offers some arguments, 
but the debates continue on this issue. For this, 
present study seeking and examining the role 
and effect of “modernity of political culture” on 
international tranquility in the new global age, 
we also will answer this: How has global political 
culture influenced international tranquility? The 
hypothesis in the answer to the main question of 
the present paper is that: The modernity of 
political culture has brought about a 
convergence of interdisciplinary fields among 
humankind and reduced the ideological 
contradictions between civilizations and given 
that the major wars and conflicts of human 
history have been ideological wars in the modern 
world, the roots of classical and macro wars have 
been dying in the international system and more 
tranquility and stability has dominated the 
international system. 

 

MATERIALS AND METHODS 

There are various ways to deal with modernity, 
every one of these methodologies knows and 
distinguishes modernity in an unexpected way, 
and they come to different even opposing 
outcomes. Meanwhile the school of schools and 
opponent flows attempt to mention to us what 
sort of ways or elements carries us to the ideal 
objective. The significant thing during the time 
spent turn of events and development of 
modernity is the arrangement of components of 
it and its progressive association with the 
political and social arrangement of the general 
population, truth be told while modernity has 
had a financial rationale yet after some time it 
has become a social framework. The Global Age 
is entering an enormous local area that has 
basically been out of condition of conclusion, 
having geology, and local structure. There has 
been a sort of association among public and 
transnational components that are currently 
connected to the modernity of correspondences. 
The new world is an associated world and the 
new age is the period of availability. In this 
manner modernity is a triangle that is made out 
of three interrelated monetary, political and 
social settings and its optional rationale in 
singular way of thinking is to record and develop 
the extent of individual opportunities in the 
headway of the misuse of offices. In the political 
field the center of the democratization of the 
inner and worldwide political-social settings is to 
compress and slowly dispose of dictator and 
authoritarian frameworks, and as Fukuyama 
says:" The pragmatic result of modernity in the 
space of strategy of shutting autocracy and 
extremist philosophies is to legitimize 
oppression and subjugation of people and what 
else won't return is tyranny and authoritarian 
belief systems that after Sept. 11 have been 
shown that if there is any sign of it, the world will 
remain against it". Hence it is important first to

introduce an overall hypothesis of the two 
masterminds of innovation; Ulrich Beck and 
Anthony Giddiness, and the reason for modernity 
in their suppositions. These two shield a couple 
of clarifications of the purposes behind 
modernity which they consider to be the 
aftereffect of advancement and rejects the 
understanding of the Marxist single reason based 
on which free enterprise is the power of the 
development of modernity. Giddenswo considers 
the to be as the aftereffect of the elements of 
advancement which contains what he calls 
depending on social connections through spatial 
separating and review utilization of information. 
He changes between the time of advancement 
and the prior periods. Beck like Giddenswo 
accepted that we are living in a time of review 
advancement and not the time of post modernity. 
The key idea that Beck advances in new present 
day articulation is reflexive modernization. He 
depicted this idea with Giddenswo during the 
1990s. Reflection Modernization is an endeavor 
to develop and reformulate the demeanor of the 
thorough local area as a social hypothesis with 
an accentuation on political-social viewpoints.  

 

This methodology analyzes the polarity between 
modern development and worldwide culture. 
The quality of modern civilization is the 
thorough society. A general public that creates 
perils in the change from a cutting edge time that 
is to a great extent undetected. Close by 
mechanical human advancement we are 
confronted with a worldwide culture that is fairly 
acquainted with the threats of modern 
development and looks for in any event 
hypothetical level to defeat these risks. The 
making of social orders as a state-country 
dependent on the rationale of free enterprise and 
industry, the arrangement of huge gatherings 
and societal position are the principal present 
day underlying signs that went with the 
ecological emergency, self-improvement, the 

work emergency and the cycles of modernity 
that are currently progressively losing their 
validity. These advancements make it workable 
for the principles of organizing the requesting 
inside states and the guidelines administering 
the goal of contentions between governments 
from void and new elements and reaches out to 
the degree that these conditions are viewed as a 
typical circumstance. The second present day in 
the present circumstance is framed to give the 
suitable arrangements in the present 
circumstance. Beck considers these 
arrangements the "democratization of 
constructions"," the local area of residents", and 
"globalism". As of now one can see the rise of 
another world request that prompts the rise of a 
sort of transnational or metropolitan state.  

 

Undermining the job of the state and the power 
of the state: Many experts have connected the 
improvement of worldwide relations with the 
debilitating of the public government and the 
breakdown of the public government and the 
retreat of the public authority and others have 
gone and reported the emergency of the public 
government and the termination of the public 
government however before them scholars have 
underscored that modernity has not effectively 
sabotage the authority of public governments yet 
indeed the public authority is vigorously affected 
by the marvel of modernity and political, social 
and monetary exercises are progressively getting 
transnational.  The truth of the matter is that, 
with the breakdown of the bipolar framework 
and the development of modernity governments 
were more helpless, more limited power, more 
penetrable lines, and government authority 
confronted genuine difficulties. In the present 
circumstance the state is avoided with regards to 
a regional structure and restricted to a specific 
international circumstance and a significant 
number of the examples of conduct are not, at 
this point subject to the situation with a given

land truly. Under such conditions individuals as 
one of the principle components of the 
constitution of the state are not dependent upon 
a particular character and government unit and 
don't believe themselves to be a solitary public 
and state way of life as majority and assortment 
of personalities. Lessening residents' 
dependability to the public government and 
moving faithfulness to supranational and 
worldwide organizations can be viewed as 
different impacts of this change inside the system 
of the state which has changed the interface 
among residents and governments and 
prompted the reduced patriotism, the most 
noticeable models are Kurds, the Welsh, Catalans 
in Spain, and Quebec in Canada. The fundamental 
justification these improvements are because of 
the deficiency of imposing business model of 
importance by governments in the time of 
modernity. By and large, the debilitating of the 
political sway of governments has prompted the 
development of the force of nongovernmental 
foundations and subsequently the pressing factor 
of governments to seek after another conflict 
isn't just about as compelling as the past. Thus, 
the strain to advance harmony at the worldwide 
level has been moving through the debilitating of 
the political power of governments in the global 
field. Human rights: International common 
freedoms are globalized and work past all state 
boundaries and components. These rights are 
among the talks, all things considered, and all 
administration associations that address the two 
elites and mistreated the two associations and 
social orders. Common liberties are likewise 
essential for modernity. Once the 
administrations, with the individuals who were 
in their ward would have acted in any capacity 
and with the case that basic freedoms are inside 
their homegrown purview and that each state 
alone is mindful. Governments additionally 
opposed the evaluate of their activities however 
in the new period common freedoms are a 

grounded part of worldwide law with an 
institutional design and widespread extension. 
Each single state has approved an arrangement 
that incorporates responsibilities for the 
assurance of basic liberties. Presently, basic 
freedoms have gotten a bunch of rules for the 
talk of the worldwide local area. Political, 
monetary, social, and social responses all 
through the world happen in the field of basic 
liberties and nations have acknowledged at any 
rate on a basic level that the advancement and 
security of all basic freedoms involve worry for 
the global local area.  

CONCLUSION 

 

In another worldwide setting, space for inter 
civilization experiences and contacts is 
undeniably more intriguing than previously. 
Modernity through new explanation offers hints 
and significance to ideas, new characters and 
implications of man, culture, and social 
connection addressing it as reality and 
objectivity of life. The chance of a world without 
borders has gotten so enormous that there is a 
typical political culture around here in various 
social orders to the degree that legislatures have 
philosophical responsibilities and shared 
interests they will be set up to focus and 
decentralize the sway of the state just as to kill 
the security and guard wildernesses. Modernity 
has had the option to end the exemplary battle in 
the field of human philosophy. While 
philosophical fighting keeps on being on the 
worldwide stage, yet not quite the same as the 
past. All in all, the philosophies that arrange the 
conflict in the time of modernity are not as 
memorable as the past. In the time of modernity 
any belief system and culture that is amidst war 
slaughter and logical inconsistency can't grow 
and become history. In any case, the incredible 
forces don't plan to battle one another and the

development of such a conflict is improbable. 
Today the worldwide climate has gotten totally 
different and more intricate in examination with 
past ages worries about the danger of worldwide 
conflict and the conflict of human advancements 
are gone, and fears of such conflicts in the global 
local area are not felt. Consequently, it tends to 
be said that modernity has gotten an obstacle to 
war and has exacerbated the security of the past. 
Consequently, the ideas of aggregate security in 
the advanced world have gotten more reasonable 
in nature and it appears to be that the worldwide 
local area, the local area of states, the United 
Nations and legislative and nongovernmental 
foundations in the battle against illegal 
intimidation until its conclusive annihilation and 
full acknowledgment.
