Course Title

Seminar on the Anthropology of Peace and War

Description

Every human society must manage discord, conflict, violence, and combat. To the extent that these tendencies are kept in check, we speak of peace. When they are intense and highly-organized we call them war. This seminar seeks to shed light on the many stages of intensification between peace and war and considers them through the comparative cultural perspectives of anthropology. Students will receive credit for ANT 4017 or SOC 4017, not both. These courses may substitute for each other with the Freplacement option.
