CONFLICT.

Conflict can be simply be defined as misunderstanding or disagreement between two or more people. Conflict arises as people interact in their families, workplace, offices, social clubs, communities and countries. Conflict occurs sometimes due to lack of cooperation..

CAUSES OF CONFLICT. Selfishness : Selfishness often goes with cheating This will normally generate conflict because the person cheated will negatively react to claim what belongs to him Lack of cooperation : Failure to work as a team often leads to disagreement, misunderstanding and division..

CAUSES OF CONFLICT. Lack of religious tolerance : Religion should normally produce peace in the society Conflict arises where religious groups do not tolerate one another Criminal activities : Criminal acts such as kidnapping, murder, fraud, immorality will cause serious conflict within a group in the society Bad leadership: When leaders are greedy, selfish and insensitive to people’s plight and suffering there is bound to be conflict..

EFFECTS OF CONFLICT IN SOCIETY. Break down of law and order: Conflict always results in riots, fighting which give room for looting and all sorts of lawlessness Loss of lives and properties: Violent conflicts normally lead to burning of public and private buildings vehicles markets etc. Many precious lives have been lost through various protest communal wars, election protests and so on. Insecurity: Conflicts create insecurity in the Society. Many people from the south are always scared of travelling or living in some parts of the north because of the fear of sudden eruption of violence.

EFFECTS OF CONFLICT IN SOCIETY. Slow progress in the society: Conflict is a great clog to development in the society, for instance, funds that could have been used to execute new developmental projects will be used in repairing or rebuilding public houses destroyed during riots and wars. Conflict always brings set back to economic, political and social development Disunity: People who are always at loggerhead with one another can hardly be united. They cannot work together to achieve anything tangible.

CONFLICT RESOLUTION. Conflicts can be resolved in the following ways: Dialogue: The opposing sides can come together to discuss how to end their feud. Usually, a third party mediates between the opposing parties to bring peace to the community The Law Court: Conflicts can be resolved by using legal methods. The two sides employ lawyers who present their cases in court after which judgment is given.

CONFLICT RESOLUTION. Negotiation: Engaging in negotiation allows conflicting parties to discuss their interesting, preferences, and potential solutions to the conflicts. Collaborative problem-solving: Collaborative problem-solving encourages conflicting parties to work together towards finding creative and sustainable solutions Tolerance.
