“Conflict is inevitably encountered by all humans in different ways. Consider the types of conflicts faced by individuals: personal conflict, interpersonal conflict and extra-personal conflict. The study of this Context requires an understanding of a range of conflicts including moral dilemmas, differences with immediate others and social unrest, such as war. However, it is imperative to also consider the various ways in which people “encounter” conflict in their lives and how they deal with and resolve the battles and challenges they face as a result of particular conflicts.” TSSM Notes on Encountering Conflict
