Interactive conflict management: An alternative methology to address social conflict at a local level

Conflict is an inevitable part of any society. It often alters the social relations in society. Effective management of conflict requires an improvement in distorted social relations. The aim of this paper is to offer an action‐oriented, learning‐based methodology to address over‐growing conflict in society. Based on the examination of the conventional approaches used in rural Nepal, this paper argues that conventional methodologies are not able to resolve growing social conflicts in the community. This paper concludes that a more responsive conflict management methodology is required to deal with growing social conflict in the community. This paper then offers the correct management methodoligies to fill this badly needed gap.
