Conflict Negotiations

Spring 2013 quarter

Faculty

Lori Blewett communication, social studies

Description

Conflict is an integral part of everyday communication and decision-making: in the workplace, in our personal lives, and in the public sphere.  This course will introduce students to core concepts and theoretical frameworks that enhance our ability to analyze and successfully manage conflict.  It will include skill building and communication practice aimed at expanding our conflict negotiation repertoire and our capacity for collaborative problem-solving.  We will focus on research, theories, and practices that cut across contexts, and give some additional attention to cross cultural conflict, public forum facilitation, and third part mediation.
