Course description
The recent Russian invasion into Ukraine is further driving the dominant idea that military threats can only be countered by increasing military power. However, efforts bave been made in various fields of studies to identify the limitations and problems with the logic of power and to seek for alternative ways to construct peace. In this class we will look at different approaches to violence, order and justice in international relations and explore links between our daily life and wars.
