CAPSTONE: Conflict Analysis Models
Conflict analysis is central to understanding the context and content of any conflict. It is also critical for the person doing the conflict analysis to have a good understanding of who they are as a conflict resolution practitioner, including the frames with which they view the conflict analysis. Our worldviews, assumptions, values, and beliefs shape how we frame and create meaning from conflicts that we choose to examine, and how we understand the dynamics of those conflicts. Therefore, to conduct an impartial analysis of any conflict, and add value for the stakeholders involved, self-awareness is crucial.
This course is the foundation for developing the necessary mindset for conflict analysis. We want you to be able to enter any situation and ask the question, “What is really going on here?” and to use that inquiry to uncover underlying needs, issues, and assumptions. In this course, in addition to increasing your self-awareness as a conflict resolution practitioner, you will explore and become familiar with diverse conflict analysis approaches and tools, beginning with creating a conflict map to identify the actors, dynamics, and structures that are creating, escalating, and perpetuating the conflict. You will work with a variety of conflict analysis tools to examine the stakeholder perspectives and will be asked to identify issues that surfaced as a result of this analysis. You will define goals for your inquiry that correspond to the conflict issues you have identified and coalesce thematically around a specific purpose of appropriate scope for your capstone study. You will utilize the Coordinated Management of Meaning and Case Study frameworks to engage in desk-based qualitative inquiry using secondary sources. You will put theory into practice by interpreting the secondary data through the lens of applicable theory. The data will be further analyzed using CMM models and conflict analysis tools as a means of surfacing several needs to be addressed in your intervention design (in the next capstone course).
This course is the first of three (3) required courses of the capstone sequence.
In 6050, students will complete conflict analysis for their capstone case study.
In 6250, students will design an intervention that addresses the needs identified in their earlier analysis. In 6350, students will consider sustainability, as well as monitoring and evaluation strategies for their proposed intervention.

Reckoning with Asian America
It took the mass murder of six Asian women in Atlanta on March 16, 2021 to draw national attention to what Asian Americans have been warning about since the wake of Covid-19: a surge in anti-Asian violence and hate. Since the onset of the coronavirus, 1 in 8 Asian American adults experienced a hate incident, and 1 in 7 Asian American women worry all the time about being victimized, reflecting an under-recognized legacy of anti-Asian violence, bigotry, misogyny, and discrimination in the United States that dates back more than 150 years. Drawing on research and readings from the social sciences, this course links the past to the present in order to understand this legacy, and how it continues to affect Asian Americans today.

INTEGRATION OF SCIENCE AND PRACTICE II
INTEGRAT OF SCI & PRACT I
The different studios in the Mailman Core teach a set of foundational perspectives, knowledge, and skills. But the practice of public health requires applying this education in a context characterized by uncertainty, risk, competing interests, and conflicting values. In the fall semester, Integration of Science and Practice (ISP) involved contained cases where the stories and evidence were organized and arranged for us. Often the decision-points were relatively unambiguous. This spring we will expand our reach, taking on cases in a way that looks more like the real world. We will start with a complex case specifically selected to integrate key concepts from the Core Semester. You will write a policy memo by focusing in on an issue within the case that you find compelling. The policy memo will serve as a model for you to then construct your own cases in small groups and take responsibility for teaching an ISP session devoted to your case. This team-based approach to problem-solving will also allow you to bring the concepts you explore in Leadership and Development to bear in ISP. These student-led cases, drawing on a range of skills and tools, represent the culmination of the Core.

PERSONAL LEADERSHIP IN PUBLIC HEALTH
The goal of the course is to provide students with an overview of some of the fundamental principles and practice of leadership as it applies to a career in public health, with a specific concentration on personal leadership development. Students will focus on four critical competencies of personal leadership: 1) self-awareness, 2) power, 3) leading through others, and 4) negotiating effectively (Figure below). Students will also critically examine traditional notions of leadership, exploring concepts of ‘who gets to lead?’, the inequities that result and the diversity of effective leadership roles and styles. With this understanding, students will develop and improve their ability 1) to lead individuals and teams in a wide range of settings, including research centers and domestic as well as international public health organizations, 2) to perform more effectively as both team members and individual contributors to organizations and communities; 3) to promote their own leadership plan and credo.
Given its weight, it is important to stress that developing a leadership credo means more than coming up with a snappy one liner or finding just the right quote to capture your leadership style. It is an opportunity to develop an authentic leadership stance – a set of beliefs and/or values that you stand for as a leader and that you expect from others who you will lead, whether as the head of an organization or a member of a team, to support and eventually allow them to follow you. Your role is to move individuals towards success in meeting specific goals and overcoming certain challenges. Developing your credo will enable you to verbalize how you will achieve this through an authentic presentation of yourself. This course aims at ensuring you are comfortable, capable and confident in the authenticity of You as a leader.

Economic Development in Latin America
Econ Development:Latin America
This course aims at familiarizing students with historical and contemporary debates on Latin American economic development and its social effects. The focus of the course is comparative in perspective. Most of the readings deal, therefore, with Latin America as a region, not with individual countries.
The first five classes are historical. After an initial overview of long-term historical trends and debates on institutional development in Latin America, it looks at the four distinctive periods of economic development: the “lost decades” after Independence, the export age from the late nineteenth century to 1929, the era of State-led industrialization, and the recent period of market reforms. The latter should be viewed as an introduction to the second part of the course, which deals with the major contemporary issues: macroeconomic management, trade policies, production sector trends and policies, income distribution and social policy. It will end with a session on the effects of recent crises on Latin America (Covid-19 and 2022-23 world crisis), and the ongoing debate on it future economic and social development.

usually grounded in law and enforceable by law, and
supervision
, oversight exercised through examinations and surveillance, with legal powers to ensure remediation of significant problems. We will discuss the underlying rationale for
financial
regulation, the most important elements involving market failure and externalities associated with financial activity. These elements can arise arise from the network nature of financial activity, asymmetries of information; financial fragilities; and market power. The design of a regulatory system should also take account of the constructive role of market forces, such as incentives for sound financial firm governance and the market’s discipline of risk-taking.

Please note: This course is required for ICLS graduate students, and priority will be given to these students. Generally the course fills with ICLS students each semester. Students MAY NOT register themselves for this course. Contact the ICLS office for more information at icls.columbia@gmail.com. This course was formerly numbered as G4900. This course introduces beginning graduate students to the changing conceptions in the comparative study of literatures and societies, paying special attention to the range of interdisciplinary methods in comparative scholarship. Students are expected to have preliminary familiarity with the discipline in which they wish to do their doctoral work. Our objective is to broaden the theoretical foundation of comparative studies to negotiate a conversation between literary studies and social sciences. Weekly readings are devoted to intellectual inquiries that demonstrate strategies of research, analysis, and argumentation from a multiplicity of disciplines and fields, such as anthropology, history, literary criticism, architecture, political theory, philosophy, art history, and media studies. Whenever possible, we will invite faculty from the above disciplines and fields to visit our class and share their perspectives on assigned readings. Students are encouraged to take advantage of these opportunities and explore fields and disciplines outside their primary focus of study and specific discipline.
