CESO 0904 - Leadership and Conflict Resolution

Institution:

Brown University

Subject:

Description:

Conflict is ubiquitous. We encounter it in our daily lives with friends, family-members, and colleagues; in our communities between different interest or identity groups; and at the global level between state or non-state actors. Good leadership is essential at any and all of these levels to ensure that conflicts are dealt with constructively rather than destructively—in other words, to ensure that the potential for social change and transformation that inheres in conflict is realized, rather than lost in the infliction of physical violence or other forms of harm. This course will explore the phenomenon of conflict--at the interpersonal, communal, and global levels--and will focus on various nonviolent strategies for managing, resolving, and transforming it.
