Sources of conflict

Information: Lack of information, misinformation and different interpretations of information can lead to conflict. Disputants may not have sufficient information or even the same information about a given situation. In other instances, groups and individuals may interpret the same data or information in differing ways or they may assign different levels of importance to the same data. Control and manipulation of information is a major weapon in conflict situations. Miscommunication: Ineffective communication is another source of conflict. Even if there are no basic incompatibilities between groups and individuals, miscommunication and misunderstanding can lead to conflict. Moreover, stakeholders may have different perceptions about the facts in a situation and until they are clarified, there can be no resolution. Self-centredness, selective perception, emotional bias and prejudices lead to differing perceptions between the stakeholders of a conflict. Lack of skill in communicating one’s viewpoint in a clear and respectful manner often results in confusion, hurt and anger, all of which fuel the conflict further. Whether the conflict has objective sources or has arisen due to perceptual or communication problems, the people involved experience it as very real.

Resources: This relates to conflict over material resources such as land, money or objects, which are evidently identifiable and can be negotiated. Historically, disputes over access to and control of territory, material, economic and scarce natural resources have been one of the dominant sources of conflict. One major element in the colonial empire building of the 19th and 20th century was the competition for resources and defence of national economic interests which were defined in territorial terms. Here each faction wanted to grab as much as it could; its behaviour and emotions were directed towards maximising gain. In extreme cases, disputants may resort to military action or the threat of it to gain or defend access to resources perceived as vital for survival, for example, the developed Western countries attach a great deal of importance to maintaining their access to oil supplies in the West Asian region and are prepared to undertake extreme measures to do so.
