Comment
Introduction to Peace and Conflict links scholarship to practice and challenges students to develop their knowledge into critical ways of thinking and behaving as potential policy designers and advisers in the field. Students who join this introductory seminar will gain useful lenses for analyzing and understanding current events, global issues and policy decisions. This course aims to provide a postgraduate-level introduction to the main theoretical frameworks, approaches and methods employed within the field of conflict studies and management as they relate to violent conflict within, between, and across states. Despite that the course is focusing mostly on direct violence in conflict zones, often located in the so called “global south” countries. The lecturer would bring questions and discussions about others forms of violence beyond those contexts. Specifically, the course explores diverse theories explaining how conflicts erupt, also addresses major issues of international conflict management: mediation, conflict prevention, implementation of peace agreements, international intervention, conflict legacies, “post-conflict” policies, reconciliation, climate change, conflict, and implications for peacebuilding. The course will be taught from a variety of perspectives, including social psychology, sociology, political science, anthropology, and international relations, and will expose students to the interdisciplinary approach needed in the research of conflicts studies and management. In addition to a theoretical understanding of the conflict resolution discipline, we will discuss specific conflicts, and look at different and competing approaches for understanding, analyzing and reflecting about potential ways of management and resolve them.
