The major themes and debates within the field of conflict resolution are discussed in this course. Students gain an understanding of the tools that are available to intervene in conflicts and an awareness of how to improve their capacity to analyze and resourcefully respond to conflict. Additionally, students develop a critical theoretical perspective on the general field of conflict resolution. This class assists the scholar/practitioner in addressing major challenges that call for creative formulation. Such new perspectives may enable the student to be a more effective agent of change, and the field to address the prevention of violent and destructive conflict as well as the resolution of specific disputes. 3 credit(s)
