Creative Conflict



................................................................................................................................................................................


Jung’s idea is based on the premise that conflict per se between two cultures (countries, societies, or religions) is natural or normal.

The problem to be tackled is not to remove conflict, but to prevent it escalating into destructive violence, by helping the conflict become productive.  Conflict becomes destructive when it is hijacked by unconscious, emotional tendencies that are out of control and have massed together to form a cultural movement.

Conflict is productive when both sides recognise the validity of the other, and collaborate to find solutions to their differences.
