본문내용
Contemporary conflicts have some characteristics. First, they are mostly intra-state conflicts. Most importantly, as we have seen, more and more conflicts are identity-related. One may argue that that ‘ethnic diversity alone is not a cause of armed conflict’ and that ‘but parties to a conflict are often defined by their ethnic identities’. This might be right. However, even in this argument, it cannot be denied that ‘once ethnicity is fuelled with anger and grievance, ethnicity becomes a deep-rooted cause of a conflict which makes protracted social conflict.Second, the reason why contemporary conflicts are protracted can also be found in social-psychological process of grievance formation. As I have argued, contemporary conflicts are not likely to have termination point since they go along ups and downs of a cycle of conflict, where social psychological process prevents conflict-resolution mechanisms from come into being and makes them vulnerable.
Thirdly, we should not neglect the fact that most of contemporary conflicts take place in the third world. It does not only suggest that lack of material resources can be a source of protracted social conflict but also further implies that the third world countries are already well-equipped with preconditions for protracted social conflict. They are mostly weak states in the sense that they rely on repressive state apparatus rather then compromise and bargaining when confronting competing interests. They are mostly poor and asymmetric in terms of economic distribution as well as access to political power.
