Descriptif
The course explores perspectives on and approaches to conflict and security in the contemporary context. It pays special attention to the theories and concepts underpinning the analysis of war, peace, crisis, and the creation of security and insecurity. In addition to focusing on the use of violence by states, we will also pay attention to actors beneath and beyond the state. The course is inter-disciplinary in nature, incorporating readings from politics, philosophy, anthropology, and sociology.
