The Research School on Peace and Conflict invites applications for the PhD course on Civil Resistance: Causes and Consequences to take place at PRIO in Oslo on 11-13 February 2020. The course is a collaboration between the Norwegian University for Science and Technology (NTNU) and PRIO.

The deadline for applications is 1 December 2019.

​This course will introduce students to the literature and latest findings in the study of civil resistance and nonviolent action. It will explore explanations for the rise of civil resistance and explanations for why some succeed and some fail, and why some create durable democracies while others do not.  

The course is free of charge, but students will have to cover their own travel and accommodation costs. PhD students will normally be prioritized.

The course equals 5 ECTS (with approved essay) according to standards of University of Oslo.

Please visit the course page for further information and to submit your application.
