Hi team – Like Carole I have a number of questions. I’d be happy for the session moderator to choose one based on the spread of topics addressed by the other questions that come in.

1. It is apparent there is […]

Hello to all,

I have a few questions:

My questions are the following:

1. In most documents, the main focus regarding conflict in our reading material seems to be at the inter-States level, but internal […]

From chapter 72: State Terrorism vs. Terrosim: my question: Is it a useful diagnostic perspective to consider the emergence of terrorism as the ‘democratisation of warfare’?

Has terrorism become the […]

I’d like to build on Niamh question: how do you get a party such as ISIS to even engage in dialogue?

Hi Keil,

My question for the Skype tomorrow is based on Chapter 72: State Terrorism vs Terrorism
Galtung writes in his therapy that we must identify the underlying conflict and solve it. In light of recent […]

Hey Niamh,
I apologize for the delay, the time zones are responsible! These are the readings for Saturday. Please post your questions here on this forum and I will compile them for Naakow and Prof. Galtung […]

Thanks very much Carole and Keil.

Hi Carole,

Is it possible you could please attach the two documents mentioned above here? I can’t seem to locate them in the Docs section. Thanks.

Luke

Many thanks Carole for scoring these and storing them in Docs. They look to be very handy indeed. Nothing like a bit of drip-feeding to keep us on our toes!

Dear all,

I had a very interesting Skype conversation with Naakow this morning.

First of all, he was impressed that we managed to submit some interesting lines considering that the assignment was […]

Wow! Well done guys. Fantastic collective effort. Sorry I went offline. I’m on holidays in NZ and spent last night with no internet acess. I thought that I’d be able to submit the assignment before going offine […]

Apologies Luke, I missed all those caps. Sorry Howard, we hit the cut-off and went for it. Your comments will not be wasted though. Hopefully with good feedback and guidance from the assessors, we’ll have more o […]

Apologies to my fellow students – I’ve been away and just back and far too late sent some thoughts on the US – ignore them Liam! I shall be much more active and available on-line from here.
