The seminar's central focus is the challenge of creating security and building peace in the 21st Century. It will introduce students to the "intellectual map" of the peace-maker by exploring a wide range of literatures and cases, exploring the roots and sources of conflict, and illustrating the varieties of third party intervention for conflict management. Drawing upon readings and discussion, students will examine changing patterns of conflict and explore a range of institutions, techniques and strategies for responding to the challenge of disorder.
