Good evening all. Today I am here to talk to you about the great debate of climate change. For those of you who don’t know, climate change is the change in global or regional climate patterns and is attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels. In today’s society the general lack of interest and ignorance to climate change is astounding. You today are the generation of the future and if you want a planet for yourself and your future children it is your responsibility to act now and retaliate to the sceptics and deniers! Human advancement has been dependent on pushing the boundaries

I wanted to let you know that I am doing well in school! There is one class that I enjoy in particular and it is called Communication & Conflict. This week we are assigned to write to a friend explaining three theories that we have learned so far in chapter 3. So, I decided to write to you. All of these theories have to do with managing a conflict using a theoretical perspective. The first theory I want to tell you about is the psychodynamic theory. This theory says that we as people experience conflict because of our mental, emotional, and psychological state. Basically, the conflicts that I experience might be different than the ones you experience because of our different mental states. For example, a child who had been physically abused

Ego conflicts are when a dispute centers are status or power. Often, this type of conflict will begin with some small issue, but as status and power start to play an influence the conflict will escalate.

Conflict is a fact of life - for individuals, organizations, and societies. The costs of conflict are well-documented - high turnover, grievances and lawsuits, absenteeism, divorce, dysfunctional families, prejudice, fear. What many people don't realize is that well-managed conflict can actually be a force for positive change.

The second conflict problem is that the senior members on the new team have been sloughing off the paper work and giving it to the new guys. At first it was not an issue because we could keep up with the workload, but now we are starting to fall behind on top of all these calls. Now the problem is the sergeant is coming down on us because we can not keep up with the workload, and he is suggesting we should do over time without pay to catch up.

Conflict is an expressed struggle between two or more people who are trying to accomplish different goals. Conflict is everywhere in relationships, work places, school, family, and children. Almost any interaction with another person can have conflict because not everyone has the same goals or thoughts. Everyone is different and conflict can be very hard to avoid. Conflict to me is a big barrier in my relationships with family, friends and my significant other. Conflict is one thing that I would like to improve in my relationships because it is something that I struggle with. I am the kind of person that I want things to go my way and I feel that I am right most of the time and do not like to lose an argument. Anger also

The conflict I witnessed today morning was between my mom and my sister. The relationship between them before the conflict was all fine and normal. The relationship between the participants did have impact on how they responded to the conflict because they have a close relationship and they are very open. Due to that, they were comfortable during the conflict and it didn’t seem weird as I was viewing. It’s not the first time they are having a conflict, they are mother and daughter and had few before too.

How often do you have a conflict (disagreement )? (for example: with your team members).

In the narrative Lord of the Flies by William Golding, a young group of boys become stranded on a deserted island when their plane crashes in the midst of the post-atomic age. The schoolchildren, young and old, have to adapt to the island with no parents to guide them. As they begin to establish a social order, leaders arise to guide the other boys. With this leadership, however, comes the struggle for power and rising conflict. The two main groups on the island, the builders and the hunters, begin to fight against one another. The hunters, led by Jack, are overcome with their lust for blood, while the builders, with Ralph as their leader, yearn for rescue and organization. As order corrupts quickly around them, the boys begin to live in fear of the beast believed to be lurking in the shadows, ultimately leading to the social order’s downfall and possibly the boys’ own demise. Golding shows through the setting, characters, and symbols of this story that a stable social order can not exist if there is fear and conflict.

Conflict theory is the theory that human behavior in social contexts is the result of conflicts between competing groups, as different social groups, be they class-, gender- or race-defined, have unequal power and access to power, yet all groups compete for limited resources. This inevitably gives rise to tension and conflict, albeit often of the subtle variety, as oftentimes the conflicts between groups have been institutionalized in society to such a degree that the conflicts and tensions are such an expected part of society that the conflict, and inequality, itself disappears from public sight, and consciousness. For example, an adherent of a world systems theory of conflict would point to the global competition for resources, particularly the inequality between rich and poor nations struggling to provide the basic necessities of life to their inhabitants, as evidence of global conflict. Conflict theories seek to explain the interactions of groups within society, and assert that social order is preserved involuntarily through the exercise of power one social class holds over another (Lindsey, 2010, 7). The conflict between groups is not always obvious or apparent, so it must be unraveled and examined in order to identify and establish the impact of such conflict on society as a whole, as well as individual members and social groupings.

The struggle between humanity and savagery portrayed through the events of William Golding’s Lord of the Flies demonstrates how simple it is for one to succumb to the mannerisms of depravity. This descent into savagery is impossible with the implementation of structure and order, as such concepts provide boundaries and keep man civil and behaved. Once the boys arrive on the island, isolated and expelled from society, they look to a shell to relieve them of this hardship, and to institute a form of government to prevent them from acting out. Despite the trust they put in the shell, it fails to protect from corruption, only adding to the growing tension between all of the children inhabiting the mysterious island. Through the escalating tension surrounding the shell, a manifestation of civilization, Golding conveys that as savagery seizes control, order fails to influence human nature any longer.
