Investigate how gendered violence arises, is quelled, and our response to it, during and in the aftermath of violent conflict. This programme brings into focus the nuances of development, reconciliation and the psychological implications of sustained exposure to violence. According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) gender-based violence refers to ''harmful acts directed at an individual based on their gender." It is rooted in gender inequality, the abuse of power and harmful norms. Gender-based violence can take various forms, including physical, sexual and psychological violence. Examples include domestic violence, harassment, rape, institutional and structural violence, trafficking, and violations of human rights during times of conflict and peace. The MSc Sex, Gender, Violence engages critically with contemporary debates on this subject to provide you with an in-depth understanding of the ways people think about violence, understand it, and respond to it. This programme draws on the exceptional expertise of the Department of Sociology at the University of Aberdeen, particularly regarding religion, political violence, conflict and peace, social movements, identity processes, and global and political sociology. You will explore the theories and practices of sex/gender and post-war recovery, consider how we decide what counts as violence or a violent act, and examine why responses to violence often seem inadequate - especially in the case of gendered and sexual violence. You will also learn the latest advanced qualitative methods employed by social scientists, including participant observation, qualitative interviewing, focus groups, diaries, photography and film, and archived data sources. This programme can be used as preparation for further research including PhD studies to develop your career within sectors where violence is relevant, such as the voluntary, advocacy, charity, NGO, or policy sectors or simply to further your interest in this fascinating area.
