Unit of study_

INTS2001: Global Peace and Justice

2026 unit information

In this unit of study we explore theories about international peace and justice and how these ideas have been put into practice in international institutions. We focus on questions of refugee rights, human rights (particularly women's rights), redistributive justice, foreign aid, 'humanitarian intervention', R2P, and genocide that are central to contemporary debates about international peace and justice. The unit further examines the development of international ideas and protocols and the formation of international institutions that have attempted to put ideas of global justice and peace into practice.
