Conflict keeps repeating because we treat it too late and too emotionally.
We wait until the heat is high. We listen to rumors. We react with pride. We recruit crowds. We treat every conflict as the same kind of conflict. Then we act shocked when a small issue becomes a long fight, a long fight becomes revenge, and revenge becomes a cycle that recruits new victims. The Principles of Conflict Management is a practical guide for ordinary people who want to interrupt that cycle before it demands blood. Written in clear language and built around real-life tools, this book shows you how to reduce heat, identify root causes, choose the right method, pursue repair, and prevent relapse. In this book, you will learn: How to control conflict early, before it escalatesHow to separate triggers from root causes and map what is hidden beneath the surfaceHow revenge keeps recruiting new fighters and how to replace it with accountability and fair processThe main types of conflict (ethno-religious, political, economic, social, interpersonal) and why correct labeling saves livesThe consequences people underestimate, and why delay increases the billA step-by-step conflict management process you can apply immediatelyHow to build durable peace through dialogue, rule of law, economic empowerment, social integration, and peace skills training
