Do all conflicts have more in common than we might think?
Live late-night discussion. Evan Davis and guests discuss what conflicts have in common, be they about land, religion, money or relationships.
Conflict is everywhere and always with us, from the conflicts we have witnessed this week in Gaza, Syria, Northern Iraq and Ukraine to those we might experience in our daily lives. But from battles over territory to divorce, do all conflicts have more in common than we might at first suspect? Two sides argue over a fault line; be it a national border, a religious or ethnic tension, an economic interest or a relationship. Each becomes entrenched, fixated with their version of events, and unable to listen to the other. Are we too stubborn to avoid conflict? And, if it is an inevitable part of life, can we learn how to manage and resolve them?
