Global Conflict and Security II

Explores the issues surrounding different dimensions of conflict and security in the contemporary period. In its broadest sense, security can be understood not only in military, but also in political, economic, cultural and social terms. Several specific themes will be examined in this course, including: national liberation struggles and the rise of protracted social conflicts, the ethics of war, gender and conflict and the analytic attempts to define alternative conceptions of security.
