A Holistic Model of Handling Conflicts

<p>This book is a systematic and comprehensive investigation into conflicts in a multicultural congregation in an urban area in the UK. It provides a comprehensive account of conflict through analysing and interpreting diverse types of conflict from a combined range of perspectives of anthropology sociology and theology. It also profoundly explains the dynamics of conflict phenomena from a multidimensional perspective to understand the nature scale and intensity of multifactorial and multifaceted conflicts in the four conflict domains: interpersonal behavioural conflict cultural conflict theological conflict and political conflict. The most significant contribution of this book is to establish a holistic model of handling diverse types of conflict for peace-making peace-keeping and peace-building through employing conflict resolution settlement management and transformation in a multicultural congregational setting.</p>
