Abstract :In many disciplines of the social sciences, it is thought that at least three factors should be considered in order to make an evaluation about a subject. One of these is the period of the issue or problem being addressed, which can be called the temporal context. Another is the identification and classification of terms that explain this period, which should be approached as conceptual context. Finally, a comparison is expected to be made in order to see the differences and changes in the cause-process-effect axes, which can be called the context of comparison. Considering these three factors, this study aims to focus on the concept of détente, one of the most “popular” concepts of the Cold War, so to speak. For this purpose, the temporal framework is limited to the Cold War period and various approaches to the concept and its reflections in international politics are presented. At the same time, perspectives on the causes, processes and outcomes of the construction of the détente process are presented. Through such a focus, it has been possible to draw attention to the similarities and especially the differences in the way the concept was perceived and applied by the actors during the Cold War.
