Content and structure

The Intercultural Conflict Management master programme revolves around the premise that social conflicts materialize in the space of manifold interrelated social worlds. Accordingly, social conflicts never correspond with the space of one particular social world, but they represent an overarching continuum which stretches out over the space of several intermingled social worlds. For this reason, the programme is structured into four interrelated Area of studys which break down social conflicts from distinct but intertwined perspectives, in order to bring forward social actions aimed at the participatory resolution of conflicts: A “Social World and Power Relations”, B “Research, Action, and Networking”, C “Specialization Seminars and Workshops”, and D “Thesis and Colloquia”. These four Area of study are not to be conceptualized as accumulative elements, but they are inherently correlated and come about in parallel from the beginning up to the end of the programme.

Modules

Area of study A “Social World and Power Relations” carries out a multidimensional examination of social relations based on the spatial axis, coalescing the phenomenological, the power and the global perspectives. Accordingly, this module is structured into four interrelated units: A1 “The Lifeworld Perspective”, A2 “Power Relations, Hegemony and Inequality”, A3 “Global Justice and Human Rights”, and A4 “Global Relations and World System”.

Area of study B “Research, Action, and Networking” brings forward a methodological “triangle”, which coalesces social research, network analysis and project-based social actions. Therefore, this Area of study is structured into three interrelated units: B1 “Qualitative and Participatory Social Research Methods”, B2 “Networking”, and B3 “Planned Social Action”. Additionally, unit B4 “In-Field and Mobility Guidance” supervises the student’s fieldwork and research stays.

Area of study C “Specialization Seminars and Workshops” is structured into seminars and workshops. Seminars break down specific real-world conflicts, providing both analytical and intervention skills for conflict resolution. Workshops revolve around practical training in specific tools for conflict management such as mediation, communication, statistics, etc.

Area of study D “Thesis and Colloquia” comes about in the fourth semester and revolves around the elaboration of the masters’ thesis.
