A and B) Back when I just started to immigrate in the U.S., there is one scenario where I came across an interpersonal conflict. Back then, I am still a religious person for that is how my family raise me. I met a group of American students in college where they have a different religion than mine. I am Catholic, they are Christians. I started to question their belief. They started to question my belief as well. Conflict arise and we went into a heated debate. After a long discussion, neither both of us are satisfied with the answers. It is a never ending argument nobody is willing to give in. It took me a long time to realize that people have different views and perspectives in life and not just what I believe in is right.
C.) In a Micro-frame context, a factor that influence the conflict I experience is the culture orientation. Interdependent orientation where the self is understood as relational and conflict is seen as part of life (Sorrells 203).Philippines is largely a catholic country which mean that citizens that live there including me believe this is the only religion that is accepted. On the other hand, U.S. have a diversity in religion which makes citizens more aware of different perspectives.In a Mezo-frame context, I believe ethnocentrism and power imbalance contributed to

Process of critical analysis, reflection and action for effective communication (Sorrells 220). The conflict I experience on religion made me interested on getting to know other beliefs and as a result made me realize that there is more to be known. The conflict I had with those american students actually convinced me that my religion before is constricting. It took me sometime to finally accept other views for I believe that the society I lived in brainwashed me to believe this is the only way. I know for a fact that I have change the my views and I am more open-minded as of
Like I said earlier, I am Muslim. All of my religious beliefs have been acquired socially and I know others have too. That is why we always have so many problems grasping the ideas of others seeing something differently than we do. This is why the author says that when religions or beliefs are left unprocessed it leads to dangerous conflicts. He talks about how this conflict comes from people do not welcome the ideas of understanding political and religious

The social conflict theory is based on society being a complex system characterized by inequality and conflict that generate social change. Social conflict can be seen all over the world we live in: in sports, politics and normal social engagements and society at large. Karl Marx studied social conflict His entire life and wanted to reduce social inequality. The social conflict theory can be described as favoritism; Society tends to show favoritism to the prestigious members of that particular society. Social inequality is shown throughout the world from situations of race, ethnicity, gender, and age. These factors may dictate wealth, schooling, power, and prestige. The social conflict paradigm views the patterns that benefit
I learned a long time ago that most everything you try to do to make certain individuals seem reasonable NEVER make them completely reasonable. Normal individuals have seen conflict similar to mine and will say why do you think like this and end up getting lost in what was the situation. I can tell these individuals over and over but they just don’t get it.They would have to see the situation to truly get it. The conflicts I have endured would make even the strongest strong minded individuals tune into weak minded individuals that would chose to terminate their own life? More than likely those individuals conflicts are little to nothing to the conflicts I’ve been though.
“A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger” (Proverbs 15:1, English Standard Version). No two persons are the same. Differences are evident. Personalities collide. Our words can have a positive or negative impact. Conflict can be intrapersonal, interpersonal, or organizational. How are we interacting with our co-workers? How can we as healthcare workers resolve conflict?
Conflicts, the world will always have it. No matter the situation or the atmosphere anyone and anything will always find conflict in something. The world has become more globalized and yes each country has become extremely intercultural but it doesn’t mean it has always been welcomed. Not welcoming intercultrual globalization is the reason there is conflict in the way everyone communicates and interacts with each other. We all ask ourselves where does conflict stand, now is it inherited in the process of globalization, is it innate in human nature or is conflict profitable and who benefits from the conflict and why?
However, the more realistic picture of family dynamics in the United States, is depicted through the conflict theory. Family and marriage from a conflict perspective, “can be viewed as smaller versions of the larger class system, where the well-being of one class (men) is the result of the exploitation and oppression of another class (women).” (Schwartz and Scott, 2013, pg. 48) In the traditional family, men dominate. Patriarchy is the foundation for the nuclear family.
My partner, TJ, and I have been together for over five years and have faced many transitions during our relationship. From being long distance to moving in together, then later moving across the United States while continuing our personal goals and continuing our education to advancing our careers. Although we have been together for many years, we still find ourselves working most towards our communication skills due to the conflicts and arguments that are caused from the high stress of transitions and trying to focus on ourselves. While being aware of the balance needed to keep our relationship strong, we have learned that holding back from expressing what we feel from each other is not an effective strategy. The interpersonal conflicts that
115). Parrillo (2014) states that immigrant would leave their homeland to seek a better life, but they would bring over their own religious prejudices, but still became intolerant of those who had different beliefs (p. 115). According to Parrillo (2014), “Because religion often is closely intertwined with ethnicity, current migration patterns offer clues about religion preferences of future Americans” (p. 526). With people of varying degrees of faith joining together and non-religious people are increasing, the religions immigrants have will vary and can be unpredictable (Parrillo, 2014, p.
A conflict that I have chose to write about is from one of my own experiences. Suchlike, my parent’s divorce in the year of 2007. I have chosen to write about this topic because I was in the middle of the dispute, therefore I know all components of the conflict. If I would have chosen a historical event at a different level, it is possible that I would not know all the details or possibly confuse part of the facts. I would not say writing about my own conflict is any easier because there are still various components to these conflicts, just like any other world wide problem. I tend to look back at this time because it was such an unhappy part in my whole family's life, and I have learned from it. As I stated in my self reflection paper, I
Conflict is a complex behavior. It can occur on various levels as intrapersonal, interpersonal, intragroup, or intergroup. Intrapersonal conflicts occur within the person, whereas interpersonal conflict takes place between people. Likewise, intragroup conflict happens within one group of people and intergroup conflict occurs between two or more groups of people.
I would like to convey my gratitude to Dr. Sasmit Patra, for giving me the opportunity to apply and understand my Organizational Behaviour concepts. This article would not have been successful without the help of the people, individuals and organizations who have helped me by providing necessary information and guidance. I would like to extend my thanks to all of them.
Religion is a very sensitive topic. Growing up, we are taught to not talk about politics and religion at the dinner table. So, why is religion so important to some and not to others. A better question is why are people religious? Religion is seen to be a part of people culture and background. I will be discussing how it can also be associated with different theories like social exchange theory, symbolic interactionism, conflict theory, functionalism and others. .
