Understanding Conflict and Disagreement: Definitions and Distinctions

This course explores the nuances between conflict and disagreement, two concepts that are often conflated, yet distinct. Students will learn essential terminology related to conflict resolution, identify the similarities and differences between conflict and disagreement, and examine whether one can exist without the other. Key definitions will be provided, alongside practical examples from case studies like "Twelve Angry Men". Participants will engage in discussions and activities that delve into the origins and nature of conflict, and the techniques for their resolution, preparing them for real-world applications.
