Summary/Abstract: Discussion on ontological-axiological prerogatives of philosophy of peace keeps in its focus a question of what peace really means and whether it exists in human life at all? Basically, it is a try for establishing referential system of values with double purpose: first, with an aim to compare existing situation with such a reference; and second, to set proper orientation sign if we are to choose following it. Historical view on concept of peace serves the purpose of identifying whole spectrum of values where each and every of them create their own relationship towards peace. Those values are sometimes peace precondition; sometimes they are subordinate to it, whereas sometimes they all co-exist on their way of reaching the level of human being. Yet, it is to be concluded that peace and its inherent values are in continuous, dialectical relationship thus requesting tight amalgamate of theory and practice on the way of making it happen.
