CONFLICT AND RECONCILIATION: 2008-2009
 
 
Conflict is seemingly endemic to society and rightly demands our attention. Yet often greater emphasis is placed on the prevention of conflict by focusing on its causes than on the effective resolution of conflict. The aim of the Dartmouth Centers Forum theme is to emphasize reconciliation as a method to resolve conflicts no matter what their causes. Conflicts permeate our individual and social relations and may be internal, local, national or international. Reconciliation, viewed as a process of coming to terms with what is, accepting, compromising and forgiving, encompasses all the fields of human endeavor, As such it is fertile ground for the discussion of questions such as: What makes reconciliation a successful conclusion to conflict? Are there universal processes of reconciliation? Are there conflicts that cannot be reconciled? What innovative methods might be employed in the promotion of reconciliation for conflicts, be they personal, societal or global? The Centers Forum welcomes the participation of the entire Dartmouth community in addressing Conflict and Reconciliation.
