Conflict is an inevitable and all-pervasive element in
our society and in the world. Conflicts are long lasting aspects of human
behavior and social relationships. Conflict is a situation between at least two
interdependent parties that is characterized by perceived differences and that
the parties evaluate as negative.
Although conflicts may end up in destruction and even death, conflicts
may also result in increased effectiveness, enhanced relationships, and further
goal attainment. Conflicts have positive as well as negative consequences for
the parties involved and for the larger social system of which the disputing
parties are members. Conflict resolution is a process of managing a conflict
and negotiating a solution. Conflict resolution is the methods and process of
negotiation, arbitration, and institution building which promote the peaceful ending
of social conflict. The conflict resolution approaches also point out
strategies that could be employed to find an exit from the conflict’s
destroying dynamic and that aim toward achieving satisfying solution for all
parties involved. In this paper an attempt is made to examine the concept and
various aspects of Conflict and Conflict Resolution.
