Enrolment for this class is currently closed.

The aim is to engage students in a critical assessment of the mechanisms and available institutional framework of International Crisis Management. More specifically, the module aims to engage students with the mechanisms of conflict resolution and crisis management, reflect on the changes of causes and nature of current conflicts in the international system, and critically assess the limits and strengths of traditional tools of conflict management in their application to new forms of conflict. Furthermore, the module will engage students in a live simulation of a hypothetical conflict in the international system, and encourage students to work in groups during the simulation to find a joint solution by applying the knowledge acquired during the module. This module will run throughout the semester (14 weeks).
