Conflict Intervention, Resolution and Reconciliation
Julia Grauvogel
A record number of ongoing armed conflicts puts the lives of millions at stake. Most armed conflicts have witnessed interventions by external unilateral or multilateral actors seeking to contain violence and foster peace, but their track record is mixed. Instruments such as military interventions, peace operations, sanctions, and mediation can reduce the intensity and duration of violence under certain conditions. Yet, they often fail to create sustainable peace, not least because they do not transform violent conflicts in ways that prevent their recurrence. Approaches such as security sector reform and transitional justice have been criticized for following a liberal script that pays insufficient attention to local realities and bottom-up perspectives, thereby failing to establish everyday peace. This seminar offers students a nuanced understanding of conflict intervention, resolution, and reconciliation. The analysis accounts for both macro-level patterns and micro-level dynamics, while also addressing pressing issues such as the gendered dimensions of peacebuilding and the role of religious actors and civil society. Empirically, the seminar focuses on the African continent, examining both ‘famous’ and lesser-known cases alongside cross-national analyses based on key studies as well as own empirical data.

Qualitative Research in Peace and Conflict Studies
Julia Grauvogel
Qualitative research is an integral part of political science, with case studies often providing the basis for our theorizing. This course addresses the key elements of qualitative methodology, from research design to different approaches to collecting and analyzing data. It enables students to become “both critical consumers and beginning producers” (Kellstedt and Whitten 2018) of scholarly research on politics. In doing so, the seminar familiarizes students with a wide range of qualitative methods, helping them develop an understanding of their diversity, strengths, and limitations while equipping them to devise their own research designs.

It is divided into three parts. The first part addresses the fundamentals of qualitative research, including research design and case studies, while also paying attention to questions of research ethics and the use of (generative) AI. The second part of the seminar sheds light on different approaches to data collection, including interviews, focus groups, and ethnographic work. The third part delves into data analysis, covering different approaches from Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) to process tracing and qualitative content analysis. The course is based on the premise that meaningful discussion of research methods also requires engagement with substantive content. Accordingly, it draws on current examples from peace and conflict studies (and adjacent fields) covering different world regions.

The course adopts a portfolio system. Seminar participants will present and critically engage with a “best practice” example of data collection or data analysis in an oral presentation by a small group of two to three students (40%). For the final paper, students will prepare a research proposal including a literature review, a puzzle, a research question, their own argument and a feasible strategy for applying one of the approaches to data collection and data analysis discussed in the seminar (60%). Data collection and data analysis will not be implemented but may lay the foundation for a larger research project such as a thesis.
