PSCI 4820: International Conflict Management
This class page is based on the Research Project required for Dr. Michael Greig's Political Science 4820 course; however, it has basic research steps that are useful for any research you do. For your research project, you will need to use Keesing's and LexisNexis Academic to identify instances of conflict management efforts that applied to your selected conflict. If you find you need more help, use the Ask Us services. Library reference staff members can be reached in person and through phone and email.
