Abstract

Focusing on the interaction among members' attitudes toward issues of common concern and members' expectance toward other members' attitudes, type classification of societal conflicts and their degree of strength are clarified. For the purpose, a vigorous theoretical framework for the examination of interrelationships among various normative concepts such as obligation, permission, prohibition, etc. is introduced, on the basis of the general theory on norms, deontic logic. By presuming several plausible laws on the way of the resolution of these conflicts and by introducing a two-dimensional representation of the conflicts with one axis representing the degree of imbalance and the other axis representing the cohesiveness of systems, a characterization method of conflict resolution processes is obtained, through which prediction and analysis of actual resolution processes can be done.
