Course # 38740 Section Number 1 Day(s) M Time(s) 9:00am-11:50am Term Winter 2024 Specialization Global Conflict Studies Course Instructor Oeindrila Dube Syllabus Syllabus 12/22/24 This course will examine why people fight, the effects of fighting, and possible solutions to prevent conflict in the future. The reasons people fight, and the ways in which they fight, depend on economics, politics and psychology; we will draw on all three disciplines throughout the course. Different forms of fighting, whether terrorism or civil wars, have typically been studied separately; we will bridge this divide and study them together, assessing common root causes and approaches for resolving these conflicts.
