The use of peace narratives in order to delegitimize political opposition has been observed in electoral autocracies. One such case was in Kenya in 2013, which gave rise to the theory of peaceocracy. Peaceocracy is conceptualized as being made up of six components, namely a fragile peace, incumbents cast as peacekeepers, peace as a responsibility of the citizenry, delegitimization of certain issue

Art forms tend to mirror themselves in each other. In order to understand literature and fine arts better, we often turn to music, speaking of the ‘tone’ in a book and of the ‘rhythm’ in a painting.
