This course explores how international law guides international peace negotiations of conflicts around the world. Each class will focus on substantive and procedural issues affiliated with peace negotiations (e.g. foundational documents, agenda setting, red teaming, and backchannel negotiations). In each class, we will also welcome one or more guest speakers with first-hand experience in peace negotiations in different places around the world for a fireside chat. In addition to your reading of the firsthand account of U.S. Ambassador Wendy Sherman of her experience leading nuclear negotiations with Iran and preparing questions for each guest speaker, you will also learn how to prepare for a hypothetical international peace negotiation. This course teaches students how to lawyer peace from on-the-ground practitioners and direct exposure to the work.
Attendance at the first class is mandatory for all currently enrolled and waitlisted students; any currently enrolled or waitlisted students who are not present on the first day of class (without prior permission of the instructor) will be dropped. The instructor will continue to take attendance throughout the add/drop period and anyone who moves off the waitlist into the class must continue to attend or have prior permission of the instructor in order not to be dropped.
