Objectives
The course seeks to provide contemporary insights into the inter-linked economic, political and
social dimensions of violent conflicts and peace-building. Its argument is that students should not
only develop practical knowledge of the strategies for conflict management, resolution and
transformation, but also the relevant analytical skills needed for critiquing these strategies. This
suggests the ability to draw on relevant theories to examine efforts at building sustainable peace
and human development in war torn societies. It thus draws upon many important case studies
from diverse conflict settings to demonstrate where strategies have been pursued and the specific
conditions that have influenced their outcomes.

I. Violent Conflict and Negotiation
This section focuses on the changing political role and practices for handling conflict at different
levels and in different contexts. Much of the literature chronicles the different ways in which
violence and/or oppression are institutionalised and, in so doing, draws attention to some key
impediments to the institutionalisation of peace. It also points to concrete strategies of handling
conflicts through communication and negotiation.

Just War Theory – Premises and Challenges

Tor Ivar Hanstad

(01) The space for moral reasoning about war

The first lecture focuses on the fundamental premise for just war theory, including the acceptance
of the thesis of double effect, the premise of state sovereignty and the inescapable influence from
both pacifism and political realism. The lecture will also address the question of how to
understand war in relation to politics and power.

(02) War and justice: „Jus ad bellum‟& „Jus in bello‟
The second lecture will focus on the traditional criteria for jus ad bellum and jus in bello. This
will include discussions of what jus ad bellum and jus in bello in traditional state versus state
wars, as well as reflections on whether the same criteria are adaptable to late-modern asymmetric
conflicts (including „war‟ on terrorists).
