Terrorismes (FUN)

Offered by le cnam,
Terrorismes (FUN)

Ce cours propose une analyse historique précise et détaillée des mutations du terrorisme, de ses évolutions et ruptures, de son passage d’un outil criminel singulier à une dimension plurielle. Y sont abordées : les définitions, les acteurs, les cibles, les méthodes et les outils de lutte contre le terrorisme. Ce cours a pour objectif de fournir une meilleure connaissance et une plus grande capacité d’analyse de l’information sur les problématiques terroristes.

Depuis toujours, l'action violente est apparue comme un acte de résistance, parfois désespéré. Elle est souvent qualifiée de terroriste en fonction des intérêts des parties et des cibles choisies. Malgré de nombreux efforts, aucune définition internationale commune n'a pu être trouvée, et la plupart des organisations ayant pratiqué l'action violente ont été dénoncées comme terroristes à un moment ou à un autre de leur histoire. Le terrorisme a également évolué. Singulier, il est devenu pluriel. Ses cibles se sont diversifiées. Si la notion de terrorisme fait souvent l’objet de controverses et de polémiques c’est qu’elle est empreinte d’une forte subjectivité et qu’elle désigne un phénomène complexe, mouvant et multiforme.

Format
Il est organisé en 6 modules et dure 6 semaines.
Chaque module se compose de 5 à 6 séquences vidéo, suivies d'une ou deux questions.
Pour chaque séquence des discussions sont ouvertes sur le forum. Les retours hebdomadaires aux principales questions des forums, se font en direct par hangout.

Understand and analyze the role of religion in conflicts and peacebuilding in present-day societies, with this free online course. Many conflicts in the world today are framed in terms of religion, but there is much discussion and confusion concerning the precise role religion plays in these conflicts. According to some, conflict and violence are inherent to religion. Others claim that religion is only the guise under which social, economic or political conflicts are fought out. The first step to solving religiously framed conflicts is understanding the role of religion in them, and that is what this free online course is about.

Este MOOC estudia y analiza qué hay detrás de muchas de las acciones violentas y terroristas que, en principio, resultan incomprensibles para la mayoría de los ciudadanos. En muchas ocasiones, estos actos se desatan de procesos previos de radicalización de diferente índole. Procesos que no solo son significativos porque puedan acabar en violencia, sino porque también revelan que la radicalización ideológica o ideológico-religiosa es, en sí misma, un asunto público de gran relevancia que atañe a la cohesión social y a la polarización de nuestras sociedades democráticas.

Le MOOC sera consacré à l’étude de la pensée critique. Les enjeux de cette dernière sont déterminants pour les sociétés contemporaines. On répète qu’il faut lutter contre les préjugés, l’obscurantisme voire le fanatisme. Mais on n’apprend pas à penser, à critiquer les opinions reçues, à ne les accepter qu’après un travail personnel de réflexion et d’examen. Si bien que, face à des thèses simplificatrices, complotistes, manichéennes, nous sommes souvent dépourvus de ressources parce que nous n’avons pas véritablement appris à penser et à argumenter.

Despite the fact that the Convention on the Rights of the Child affirms that, in principle, children should not be detained and deprivation of liberty should be a measure of last resort, millions of children in the world are locked away. To address this problem, the United Nations appointed Manfred Nowak as Independent Expert to lead the Global Study on children deprived of liberty. This unique MOOC stems from this study and provides insights, learning and recommendations in this important area at the crossroad of children, violence, and human rights studies.

At the global level, there are many countries marked by violence affecting health care. The 'Health care in danger' project aims to establish practical measures and recommendations that can be implemented on the ground by policy-makers, humanitarian organizations and health professionals. In view of the multiplicity of actors and latitudes concerned, it is essential to be able to make available the tools needed to make informed decisions, guide behaviour in high-risk areas and provide everyone the means to create and optimize the dialogue between humanitarian professionals and health on the one hand and relevant authorities or other armed actors.
