Understanding Psychic Infrastructure in Long-Term Conflicts: Insights from Bar-Tal

According to Bar-Tal, the psychic infrastructure of a society under chronic conflict integrates beliefs that sustain resilience. Key components include the perceived justness of one's cause, victimization narratives, delegitimization of the adversary, and a commitment to national security through strength. This framework contrasts sharply with peace interpretations, where participants view conflict as rooted in oppression and disenfranchisement of the Palestinians. Understanding these cognitive frames is essential for navigating and resolving intractable conflicts and achieving peace.
