Amended Instructions for Clarity on research project

Author Peter T. Coleman, discusses “Intractable Conflict.” The task is to select an example of an “intractable conflict” and write about it. We have Global Warming as an intractable conflict?

Describe the situation of global warming as an “intractable conflict, in detail and explain why you believe global warming is an intractable conflict, based on and considering Peter T. Coleman’s five components of an intractable conflict?

Also, explain how you would deal with global warming as an intractable conflict? You must use Coleman’s guidelines, as well as other scholarly sources in the 8 -10 page research paper. You may use any articles from textbooks on intractable conflicts, or other academic articles.

You must include researched articles to by Peter Coleman and others to explain WHY Intractable Conflict, using Global Warming as one example of an intractable conflict or other suggested options to discuss as an active Intractable Conflict?? The focus must be on Intractable Conflicts, not Global Warming???

One such author Peter T. Coleman, discusses  “Intractable Conflict.” Describe the complexities in the situation of “Global Warming” as an intractable conflict in detail and explain in 8 – 10 pages of a detailed research paper why you believe this is an intractable conflicts? Author Peter T. Coleman discusses intractable conflicts in several achademic articles, some listed below.You may consider author Peter T.  Coleman’s components found in

  The Handbook of Conflict Resolution: Theory and Practice. You will also see a List of other possible articles as resources listed below? He references the 5 areas, paradigm’s (patterns or models as  to which how science  views the world) as Realist, Human, Medical, Post Modern and Systems? Please include them in paper?

 Explain how as an intractable conflict, how for example (Global Warming) may be used as one example of a national and international undisputed “intractable conflict”. You must use Coleman’s guidelines, as well as other scholarly resources on the topic of Intractable Conflicts?  You may use other articles, other than from this one textbook resource and, or other academic articles on the topic of intractable conflicts?

The above instructions highlight the importance  of:

1. First identifying what is a "Intractable Conflict" and how that conclusion is determined?

 2. Characteristics of Intractable conflict,  (Context, Issues, Relationships, Processes, Outcomes?

3. The approaches to addressing intractable conflicts five areas ( paradigms) - Realist, Human relations, medical, Postmodern and Systems Paradigm?

4. Explain how to deal with, resolve, prevent or de-escalate the continuing intractable conflicts?
