授業の概要と方法

This course reviews a wide range of theories exploring the nature and causes of conflict, the possibilities for conflict resolution, and the foundations of peace.

The course consists of two parts: the first part looks at the nature and causes of conflicts and introduces the basic field of inquiry. We will theoretically identify non-violent/violent conflict causes from various levels; the second part discusses theoretical and practical approaches to prevent and resolve conflicts peacefully.

受講生の到達目標

1. To be able to grasp knowledge of the theories associated with peace studies.
2. To be able to identify what are the causes of non-violent/violent conflicts.
3. To be able to form and express individual and original perspectives and opinions about ways to prevent and resolve conflicts peacefully.
