Document Summary
Deutsch"s conflict analysis approach is based on two kinds of process: cooperative processes, competitive processes. Deutsch opens by identifying four propositions which are generally accepted across the field of conflict studies. First, parties to conflicts usually have a mixture of cooperative and competitive motives. Second, conflict may be positive and productive, or negative and destructive. The goal is to make conflicts productive, not to eliminate all conflict. Third, cooperative or competitive interests each yield different processes of conflict resolution. Competitive relations are more likely to destructive forms of conflict, while cooperative relations support productive forms of conflict. http://www. colorado. edu/conflict/full_text_search/allcrcdocs/deutsch_dup. htm: anger arousal model: The trigger phase is when an event gets the anger cycle started. We get into an argument or receive some information that shocks us. We feel threatened at some level and our physiological system prepares to meet that threat. Take note of these things next time you feel angry.
