Irish and Global Conflict History Masters
- Limerick, Ireland
Master
Full time
1 year
On-Campus
English
This one-year MA programme explores Irish and international conflict during the twentieth century—the most violent period in recorded history. Wars have often changed the course of human history, opening up pathways into the future and closing down others. Examining the history of conflict and its impact on society enables us to better understand the world we live in today. Part of the course will also be devoted to the study of conflict resolution, examining the history of diplomacy and negotiation between states. Students will learn about the different ways that historians have approached the study of war and peace, the various sources at their disposal, and the theoretical issues arising within the field.
