Recently, post conflict environments have entered a grey area that is neither war nor peace. Simultaneous efforts involve kinetic activity, wider peacekeeping, peace building and state building. This seminar will analyze how international interveners—both civil and military—deal with such complex environments. Approaches will include themes, such as lack of coordination and planning; negotiation at HQ and in the field among civilian agencies, NGOs and the military; attempts at coordination. It will include case studies, particularly Iraq and Afghanistan. Students should have taken a course in security studies, INCR or ILO. (Wednesday 3:20-5:20 p.m.)
