General Description (概要)
This course will examine the relationship between development and peacebuilding by using a Human Security approach.

開発と平和構築の関連性を人間の安全保障アプローチの観点から考察する。


As a foundation course for Peace and Development Studies, this course will introduce students to theoretical debates on development, peacebuilding and conflict with an emphasis on Human Security. The intensification of the globalizing processes in the past two decades since the publication of the UNDP's Human Development Report of 1994 which introduced the term 'Human Security' to an international audience has effectively blurred the boundaries between 'inside' and 'outside' the nation-state making the distinction between development and security increasingly problematic. This has been compounded by the events of September 11, 2001 (9/11) and the on-going 'war on terror' which has led to a 'securitization' of development in many part of the world.

The course will first introduce students to the theoretical debates on development, conflict and peacebuilding before critically examining the concept of Human Security which seeks to bridge the divide between development and peace-building by emphasizing the interdependent nature of "freedom from fear" and "freedom from want". Since some of the theoretical approaches to Peacebuilding may be covered in Peace and Conflict I, the focus in will be on the 'Development-Security nexus' in the global South and the emergence of Resilience as an alternative to Human Security.

Please note that this course will be offered ONLINE in AY2021 due to the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19).
