Overview
You’ll focus on the political development goals of sustainable peace, good governance and stable democracy. You’ll also draw on different theoretical approaches and various empirical examples throughout the MA in Conflict, Governance and International Development at the University of East Anglia . You’ll be challenged to critically assess alternative suggestions for establishing peace and inclusive, durable democracies in developing countries.
Key topics include the possible definitions, arguable causes and consequences of democracy; the political, social and economic effects of different political institutions; and the typically contested origins of violent intrastate conflicts as well as the suggestions that have been made to help overcome them.
Careers
A career in international development can take you in all kinds of directions such as international organisations, governmental and non-governmental organisations, local governments, private sector and PhD programmes.
Previous graduates have gone on to work for the British High Commission in Ghana, UNITAR in Japan, the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs, and PhD studies in related fields.
