Abstract

"One in every twenty difficult conflicts ends up grinding to a halt. That's fully 5 percent of not just the diplomatic and political clashes we read about in the newspaper, but disputations and arguments from our everyday lives as well. Once we get pulled into these self-perpetuating conflicts it is nearly impossible to escape. The 5 percent rule us. So what can we do when we find ourselves ensnared? According to Dr. Peter T. Coleman, the solution is in seeing our conflict anew. Applying lessons from complexity theory to examples from both American domestic politics and international diplomacy--from abortion debates to the enmity between Israelis and Palestinians--Coleman provides innovative new strategies for dealing with intractable disputes. A timely, paradigm-shifting look at conflict, The Five Percent is an invaluable guide to preventing even the most fractious negotiations from foundering"--

Abstract

Conflict is ubiquitous and inevitable, but people generally dislike it and try to prevent or avoid it as much as possible. So why do clashes of right and wrong occur? And why are some more serious than others? In Moral Time, sociologist Donald Black presents a new theory of conflict that provides answers to these and many other questions. The heart of the theory is a completely new concept of social time. Black claims that the root cause of conflict is the movement of social time, including relational, vertical, and cultural time--changes in intimacy, inequality, and diversity. The theory of m

Abstract

We leven in een wereld van tegenstellingen: religie tegenover secularisme, milieu tegenover economie, gelijkheid tegenover verschillen, democratie tegenover expertise en efficiëntie, massa tegenover individu, wereldburgerschap tegenover lokale identiteit, nihilisme tegenover basisvertrouwen. Deze tegenstellingen zijn valse tegenstellingen, een keurslijf dat het Westen al eeuwen gevangen houdt. Vanuit dat grote gelijk nemen we enorme risico's en veroorzaken rampen. Er worden oorlogen gevoerd om grondstoffen en voorrechten, er worden terreuraanslagen gepleegd vanuit religieuze en ideologische tunnelvisies en we zien de ander uit wantrouwen vaak niet als mens, maar als vijand of concurrent. We zijn bang voor elkaar. Niet voor niets worden de eerste tien jaren van deze eeuw het decennium van de angst genoemd. Die mentaliteit weerhoudt ons ervan uit te breken en de creativiteit, die zo typisch menselijk is, te gebruiken om problemen op te lossen in plaats van ze in stand te houden of te verscherpen. Het plezier van het zoeken is een positief boek. Het richt zich tot de talloze actieve burgers die willen samenwerken om de aarde en de mensheid leefbaar en kwaliteitsvol te houden.
