General Description (概要)
|
|
This part of Peace Studies will cover in more depth the theory and practice of conflict resolution and transformation as well as peacemaking and changing security conceptions at various levels of the international community. It will examine the underlying ethical dilemmas and challenges posed by peacemaking in its complementary approach to the mechanisms of global governance and state relationships on the one hand, and civil society and local actors on the other. The application of peacemaking theory to case-studies will be scrutinized by closely reading scholarly and practitioner contributions to the public debate on peacemaking and conflict resolution. The course will be structured in seminar/discussion style and students'' creative thinking on peacemaking will be encouraged as they learn to develop their critical thinking skills and closely engage with debates on different issues. A significant amount of reading will be required each week but group work will also allow for students in-depth focus on different theoretical readings, case-study analyses, and policy debates.
このコースは平和研究の上級コースである。（１）過去の紛争の事例研究、（２）現在の紛争の事例研究、（３）２１世紀における安全保障と秩序のビジョン、を取り上げる。国際社会の様々なレベルにおける、紛争解決、変革、平和構築、安全保障の概念変化、等についての理論と実際をより深く研究対象とする。グローバルガバナンスのメカニズムや国家関係、また、市民社会や地域関係者に対する現代アプローチにおいて、平和構築がもたらす潜在的な倫理的ジレンマや課題を分析する。平和構築や紛争解決の学術的な文献や実務家の議論を元に、平和構築理論から事例研究への応用を精査する。このコースはセミナー／ディスカッション形式で行われ、批判的思考能力を発展させ、様々な課題についてディベートを行うことで、学生の平和構築における創造的思考を伸ばす。毎週相当量のリーディング課題が課せられます。また、グループワークは様々な理論文献、実例研究分析、政策論議等について深く、焦点をあてて行う。
