Cultural Influence in Conflict Resolution

The purpose of this study is to make an analysis on 'The Influence of Culture in Conflict Resolution'. Daily news on media is packed with information on various conflict resolutions going on throughout the world in an attempt to end ongoing disputes. Nations, organisations, communities, governments and individuals negotiate as final attempts to resolve differences in a diplomatic forum rather than combative retaliation. These negotiations can be protracted and tenuous especially when the disputing parties come from different cultures. It's influenced by cultural differences which play a significant role in determining peace and development in a conflict situation among individuals, ethnic groups or nation. This thesis asserts that, culture is a neglected aspect in a conflict resolution especially between Israel and Palestine conflict as a case study. Cultural misunderstandings are main additional confounding factors that cause complications in communication creating misperceptions hindering acceptable compromise. This happens when arbitrators/negotiators come from different cultural background.
