Many of these conflicts are ethno-national in nature. This course will explore the shift in the nature of war towards the “Post-Modern” form of internal war, and the major tools the international community possesses to manage internal wars - peacekeeping operations. We will explore the various forms of peacekeeping operations from UN mandated operations, to regional operations including NATO and the OAU. Finally we will assess and evaluate issues in peacekeeping missions. One major issue to address in peacekeeping is command and control of both the peacekeeping forces, and the warring factions. Command and control is central to maintaining control of an operation and ensuring that negotiations can carry on to bring about an end to hostilities.

	CMR 538 - Intercultural Dispute Resolution Course Description: Many mediators think that intercultural dispute resolution is based primarily on considerations of race, ethnicity, or national origin.
