授業の目的 【英語】 Goals of the Course | | The course aims at understanding and examining issues associated with civil wars and peacebuilding through engaging with both theories and practices in the field. Starting with the examination of the causes, dynamics, and outcomes of civil wars, the course further analyzes rationales behind specific peacebuilding policies and their intended and unintended consequences on war-torn societies. It also aims at understanding how the context of each civil war (causes, dynamics, and outcomes) affects and constrains the utility of peacebuilding policies. Throughout the course, students will further their understanding and critical thinking skills through large and small group discussions, simulations, and other interactive activities. Prior to each class, students will be expected to have completed the week's required readings. During the class, students will be required to participate in the class activities. By taking this course, students will be able to not only understand and critically evaluate different theoretical approaches to peacebuilding but also learn about both the benefits and pitfalls of specific peacebuilding policies in light of the situation on the ground. |

課外学習等(授業時間外学習の指示) Study Load(Self-directed Learning Outside Course Hours) | | Students should read the assigned material (in most weeks, two academic articles; this means students have to read approximately 40–80 pages per week) to prepare for the class. They will also conduct independent studies as they prepare and write policy briefs. |

|
注意事項 Notice for Students | | Students should be aware that the amount and quality of readings are demanding for a course in the spring semester. This is because the course instructor would like participants to equip sufficient knowledge and skills to engage with peacebuilding in their future career. Second-year students are also welcomed to take this course. |
