The Psychology of Peace and Conflict Resolution 平和と紛争解決の心理学

Course Description

This course represents an offering in general on the mutual interactions between human beings and their environments, physical and social(including economic, political and religious contexts), natural and built. As this course is also designated as a core component of the Rotary World Peace programme offered, the course focuses in particular on how the environmental contexts in which people live relate to basic issues of peace, security and conviviality(kyosei). Environmental determinants of attitudes and behaviour which relate to issues of peace, security, and conflict are the major focus. Issues of group dynamics as they relate to prejudice, discrimination, racism, and conflict are explored. The psychological and physiological impacts of conflict and violence are examined. Strategies for avoiding or managing conflict are considered and ways of educating for a more peaceful world are evaluated from various psychological perspectives.

 この科目は、人間と物理的・社会的環境(経済的、政治的、宗教的観念を含む)、自然と建築物との間の相互作用に焦点をあてる。同時に「ロータリー世界平和プログラム」のコアカリキュラムの一つであり、人々の平和や安全、共生という基本的問題と環境との関わりにも焦点をおいている。平和、安全、紛争問題に関わる態度と行動の環境的規定因をとりあげる。また、偏見、差別、人種差別、紛争に関係する集団力学の問題を探究する。紛争と暴力の心理学的および生理学的影響についても検討する。紛争の回避とその対応戦略を考察し、より平和な世界を目指した教育方法について、様々な心理学的知見から検証する。
