In a world reality characterized by the phenomenon of violence, non-recognition of fundamental rights, social exclusion and many other ills that constitute the Warmonger Culture and compromise the development of Peace, according to international organizations and researchers, it becomes essential the development of a Culture of Peace through Education. In this line, in 2018, the Brazilian State signed, through the National Education Guidelines and Framework Law (Law No. 9,394/1996), the commitment of the national educational system to promote the Culture of Peace. In view of that, this paper aimed at reflecting on the Brazilian cultural conditions for the development of an Education for Peace in Brazil. Thus, three contemporary social problems that compose the warrior ethos of Brazilian culture were analyzed and, in parallel, theoretical foundations were indicated for the elaboration of an Education for Peace in Brazil based on an intersubjective ethics that recognizes the Other and social realities as dialogical elements of the constitution of the being and of social transformation of the collective.
