INCM 9430:Post-Agreement Reconstruction

3 Class Hours 0 Laboratory Hours 3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: INCM 9001 or INCM 9002
This course provides an opportunity to examine emerging research on the impact of peace agreements on the conflict process. Of particular interest will be the role for development economics, including programs to alleviate poverty like micro-credit, as well as the corruption of prospects for sustaining the ceasefire and building peace. External and internal influences are studied, such as donor fatigue, media attention, civic education, and the reintegration of participants of the conflict into civil society. Students will compare conflict mitigation processes and assess their effectiveness for the context in which they were utilized.
