Participants will be able to critically analyze conflicts in terms of their history, background, underlying causes and geo-political perspectives as well as conflicts’ actual developments, third-party interventions and potential/actual solutions.
The course provides students with some of the analytical skills to understand how conflicts develop, to identify root causes of conflict at interpersonal, intergroup, inter-state and international lev els. In particular, the course focuses on (1) analyzing actors of conflicts (victims, perpetrators, and b ystanders) to realize how “ordinary people” are engaged in conflict escalation and eventually confli ct resolution, and on (2) post-conflict issues such as peacebuilding, reconciliation, transitional j ustice and reconstruction, as well as the role of the UN, regional organizations, States, and civil society. In addition, several case studies of conflicts and genocide in the past are discussed, and guest spe akers who are active in peacebuilding-related fields are invited to provide a real sense of how conf licts and conflict resolution play out on the ground. During the course, various theoretical and practical concepts of international relations, developmen t, international peace cooperation and human security as a tool to peacebuilding and sustainable sec urity are introduced. Students are encouraged to engage in discussions on actual past and ongoing conflicts to apply these theoretical concepts and refine their analysis of conflicts.
This course will review several on-going and past conflicts around the world, incl. Asia, their history, background, actors and stakeholders, influence of external actors, direct & ind irect causes. From there, actual or potential/possible solutions to those conflicts will be analyzed, also conside ring how such solutions can be sustainable. Post-conflict issues such as transitional justice, peacebuilding and reconciliation, the role of the United Nations and other relevant international and regional organizations, states, and civil socie ty actors will also be looked at during the course. Toward the end of the course, each participant will prepare/make a presentation on a selected confli ct based on the students' personal preference to demonstrate how they are able to apply the skills a nd knowledge acquired in the course and from their own research of the chosen conflict topic.
