RST 410 Peacemaking

3 credit hours

This course approaches the challenges of making and building peace from multidisciplinary perspectives. The course explores and analyzes social, cultural, and religious justifications of violence and war, the “cycle of violence” and seeks peaceful means to disrupt that cycle. The course also explores proactive measures that build peaceful communities by addressing the conditions that promote violence. The life and writings of peacemakers will serve as the critical voices that challenge us to move from ideas of peace to becoming committed peacemakers.
