The University of Notre Dame (www.nd.edu) seeks a distinguished scholar and visionary leader to fill the position of Director of the Joan B. Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies.
The Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies is a leading center for the study of strategies for sustainable peace and the causes of violent conflict. Kroc Institute faculty conduct research on peaceful reconciliation and the conditions for peace in relation to the threat or actuality of war, genocide, terrorism, ethnic and religious conflict, and violations of human rights. Scholars focus on not only large-scale international conflicts but also hundreds of local and regional armed conflicts of all sizes. Emphasis is given to the interaction between the theory and practice of peace building. The Kroc Institute offers undergraduate and graduate programs of study: an undergraduate major and minor in Peace Studies; a masters in International Peace Studies; and five joint Ph.D. programs in Peace Studies with History, Political Science, Sociology, Psychology, and Theology.
The University of Notre Dame, a leading Catholic university and ranked one of the top 20 institutions of higher learning in the United States, looks to the Kroc Institute to foster dialogue among Catholic, other religious, and secular traditions to strengthen the capacity for peace building, while sharing the University's teaching and research excellence with the world. The Institute promotes conversation on Catholicism's rich tradition of social thought and teaching on war and peace, ethics and use of force, the relationship of international law to state conduct, and the connection between justice and peace.
The Kroc Institute was inspired by the vision of the Reverend Theodore M. Hesburgh, C.S.C, and philanthropist Joan B. Kroc of a world free from the threat of nuclear holocaust. During his 35 years as president of Notre Dame, Father Hesburgh was a leading international voice for civil and human rights and the end to violent conflict throughout the world. Joan Kroc was deeply committed to world peace and her generous gift to the University supported the founding of the Institute, which currently has an endowment in excess of one hundred million dollars.
