Description:

Understanding the interplay between (inter)national conflicts and the identities and borders in the minds of people. We will zoom in on the wider global geopolitics related to conflicts, the sources and backgrounds of conflicts, the development on the ground, bordering and other processes related to it, and the attempts to resolve the conflicts.

Conflicts, Territories and Identities: Something for you?

  • Our approach includes fields as sociology, anthropology, international relations, border studies, development studies, political science and public administration.
  • The foundation of this specialisation is socio-geographical.
  • This Master’s looks beyond the violent conflict itself by also paying attention to practices of post-conflict reconstruction.
  • This specialisation is offered in collaboration with the Centre for International Conflict - Analysis & Management (CICAM).

What will you learn?

How can violent conflicts be analysed and addressed? This is a recurring question, particularly given the ongoing violence in countries like DR Congo and Afghanistan, and the outbursts of civil war in Iraq and Ukraine more recently. In this Master's you will study national and international conflict, and the territorial boundaries and borders in the minds of the people involved. You will also become familiar with the theory and practice of those organisations, such as NGOs and the UN, who intervene in violent conflict and its aftermath, as well as the efforts by local actors to transform and resolve conflict.
