SO5525: POST-CONFLICT JUSTICE AND PEACEBUILDING (2014-2015)

The first half of the course introduces students to the central mechanisms and processes by which the international community attempts to provide justice and peace in post-conflict contexts, before presenting in a series of lectures the complications and current challenges to post-conflict and justice as both an academic field and an area of practice. The course is particularly designed to inspire students to consider the complicated nature of post-conflict issues through a number of different case studies and perspectives.

Students taking this course should acquire: • the capacity to discuss and evaluate empirical evidence • the capacity to discuss and evaluate theoretical arguments • intellectual skills necessary to sustain life-long learning • key communication skills, both written, oral and dialogic
