Session 2: Politics and Conflict

​Join us for the next Political Organising Seminar, where we'll be delving into the intrinsic nature of conflict within the realm of politics. Drawing on the notion that “politics is the reconciliation of paradox,” we explore the practical ways political groups navigate conflict. We will examine the theory that conflicts are not just unavoidable but also essential to the evolution of political systems and governance structures. During the session various approaches to resolving political conflicts will be presented, participants will be encouraged to discuss tactics with their respective advantages, drawbacks, and moral implications, as well as any potential role of technology within them. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the role of conflict in politics, learn practical approaches to managing disagreements, and develop a nuanced perspective on the ethical implications of various conflict resolution tactics.
