This volume features more than 25 papers that were presented at the
2014 Conference of the International Association for the Study of
Controversies, IASC, held at the University of Salento, Lecce,
Italy. It looks at conflict and conflict resolution from diverse
perspectives, including philosophy, psychology, law, and history.
Coverage explores the paradox of conflict and examines how discord,
whether large or small, international or internal, can be both a
source of chaos as well as a foundation for unity, a limitation of
potential as well as an entryway to a greater depth of living.
Inside, readers will discover thought-provoking answers to such
questions as: What are the conditions to ensure that a conflict can
be converted into cooperation? If the conflict between interests
can be solved by a compromise, what happens when a conflict
involves non-negotiable values ? In the management of a conflict,
what role is played by argumentation? What are the latest
perspectives in conflict management? How does the theory of
controversies allows us to recognize and resolve conflicts? By the
end of the book, readers will have a better understanding of how
conflict can be transcended and how it's possible to redefine the
conflicting situation so that what seemed incompatible and locked
may, in fact, open a new perspective.
