ABSTRAKKonsep mengenai conflict prevention atau penecegahan konflik merupakan
konsep yang terus berkembang seiring dengan berkembangnya karakter konflik.
Namun demikian, pencegahan konflik seringkali diabaikan dan tidak ditanggapi
dengan serius karena banyaknya keraguan yang muncul pada aktor-aktor
internasional dan negara sebagai pihak ketiga, terutama karena hasil akhir dari
pencegahan konflik yang tidak berwujud. Padahal, pencegahan konflik penting
sebab jika konflik sudah pecah menjadi konfrontasi terbuka dan telah melibatkan
penggunaan kekerasan, biaya dan upaya yang dibutuhkan untuk mengatasinya
akan jauh lebih besar, ditambah lagi jumlah korban serta kerugian moral dan
materiil yang ditimbulkan juga sangat besar. Di sisi lain, banyak juga literatur
yang menyuarakan pendapat positifnya terkait pencegahan konflik dan PBB
sebagai organisasi internasional juga telah melakukan upaya-upaya untuk
pencegahan konflik. Oleh karena itu, tinjauan pustaka ini akan mengkaji literaturliteratur terkait pencegahan konflik untuk melihat dinamika perkembangan pencegahan konflik pasca-Perang Dingin.
ABSTRACTConflict prevention is seen as a concept that keeps evolving along with the
characters of conflict. However, conflict prevention is often ignored and not taken
seriously because there are many doubts from international actors and states as a
third party, especially since the result of conflict prevention are intangible. As a
matter of fact, conflict prevention is actually needed because if the conflict had
already broken out into open confrontation and has involved violence, the costs
and efforts required to overcome them will be much greater, moreover the number
of victims as well as the moral and material losses will be very large. On the other
hand, many literatures also expressed their positive view regarding conflict
prevention and the UN as an international organization has also made efforts for
conflict prevention. Therefore, this literature review will examine literatures on conflict prevention to look at the dynamics of the development of conflict prevention in the post-Cold War era. , Conflict prevention is seen as a concept that keeps evolving along with the
