BA Conn. USA, MA Brad., PhD Brad.

Dr Fetherston is a graduate of the CCR, completing her PhD on conflict resolution theory and peacekeeping in 1993.  The thesis was published in 1994 as Towards a Theory of United Nations Peacekeeping, which has had a major impact on policy by bringing military peacekeepers into direct engagement with conflict resolution theory for the first time. Her most recent work has been critical of theoretical inadequacies in some of the conflict resolution literature and is aimed at developing a broader `transformative´ approach to intervention in violent conflict. She was appointed a a lecturer in the Department of Peace Studies in 1995, and was awarded a grant from the MacArthur Foundation to work on Peacekeeping as Peacebuilding: Indigenous NGOs and the Transformation of Violent Conflict. This involves a study of the situation in Croatia, looking especially at how UN peacekeeping might have more effectively supported long-term peacebuilding efforts there.
