The course aims at introducing main concepts related to security and armed conflicts. The opening two lectures present important milestones in the development of the conceptualization of security, and outline basic theoretical perspectives on the role of conflict in politics and social relations. The following two lectures focus on important topics of security studies: the functioning of security systems and the issue of security threats. The rest of the course tackles conflict-related issues, mostly those connected to armed conflicts. First the typology of political and armed conflicts is introduced, followed by the reflection on the origins of conflict and conflict prevention. Other topics include the role of non-violence in a political conflict, methods of conflict management and resolution, intractable conflicts and post-conflict reconstruction.
