GLOBALCODES: Globalization, conflict, security and development
The main aim of the research group is to contribute to the scientific debate on how to respond to the global challenges of globalization, sustainable development and security, including both peace and conflicts and other threats. Research is stimulated through the lenses of a variety of disciplines within social sciences such as international relations and political science, communication, international law, history and sociology. The group offers a space for collaborative research, both for Blanquerna’s researchers and for visiting scholars and is part of several international networks.
GLOBALCODES generates theoretical and empirical knowledge in fields of growing importance within social sciences. Research is encouraged as interdisciplinary (and mostly qualitative), although critical studies and bottom-up approaches are privileged. The group also organises research seminars.
