Contentious Conversation 4 -- "Ethics and Conflict Analysis and Resolution"
Date: Wednesday, October 19, 2011
Time: 12:15 - 1:15 p.m.
Location: Truland Building, Room 555
Organizers: Profs. Leslie Dwyer and Thomas Flores, Ted Thompson (doctoral student)
Description:
Should the field of Conflict Analysis and Resolution have its own code of ethics? What dangers might arise if we assume that peace work is inherently "ethical" or "good?" What are the key ethical challenges facing us today as researchers, practitioners, advocates and analysts?
The “Contentious Conversations” Series
“Contentious Conversations” is a planned series of moderated, informal discussions on some of the key tensions that define our field. By promoting dialogue on these themes, we hope to foster community in diversity, spark new insights and collaborations, and give us all a chance to get together for some intellectual exchange.
Please feel free to bring your lunch. Coffee and tea will be provided.
