MA International Intervention
This innovative programme will enable you to understand and evaluate contemporary debates in the study of international intervention, focusing on the factors that shape such intervention in situations of conflict, state breakdown and humanitarian/human rights emergency.
You will be encouraged to explore in a detailed manner various analytical frameworks which can be used to understand international intervention, relating them to different theories of international relations and global governance. You will also gain a good understanding of the legal framework relevant to an understanding of international intervention.
In addition, the programme will provide you with the skills necessary to design and complete a dissertation on a specialist topic, including: formulating research questions; selecting appropriate methods of data collection and analysis; conducting a literature review; and presenting research according to scholarly conventions.
It provides a good preparation for students wishing to pursue a career in development, humanitarian assistance and conflict resolution, as well as politics more generally.
