Quantifying and easing conflicting goals between interest groups in natural resource planning
2019
Management of natural resources at the regional level is a compromise between a variety of objectives and interests. At the local level, management of the forests depends upon the ownership structure, with forest owners using their forests as they see fit. A potential conflict occurs if the forest owners’ management decisions are counter to the interests of society in general or the industry that relies on the forest resource as their raw material. We explore the intensity of this conflict at the regional level in several large boreal forest production landscapes. To explore the conflict, we investigate three main interest groups: (i) economically oriented forest owners; (ii) industry grou…
Teaching Green Analytical Chemistry on the Example of Bioindication and Biomonitoring (B & B) Technologies
2019
Teaching of Green Analytical Chemistry (GAC) requires a not inconsiderable willingness on the part of the lecturer to familiarize himself with a relatively new field in analytical chemistry. Although there is much that can be derived from Green and Sustainable Chemistry, the GAC’s forward-looking perspectives in particular are independent approaches that must not be neglected. In the first chapter of this article, approaches are pursued “how (teachers) learn to learn,” ultimately based on a consensus on ethics, which allows dealing with people, society and the environment to become an interdisciplinary unit. The end of all this is a smart method of conflict management which provides solutio…
Regional Security Cooperation and the SADC’s Organ for Politics, Defence and Security: A Picture of Mixed Performance
2017
This chapter provides a profound analysis of regional security cooperation in the SADC and focusses on the institutionalisation and performance of the organisation’s central conflict management institution, the Organ for Politics, Defence and Security (OPDS). By clarifying the regional security complex in every detail, Muntschick highlights the countries’ common demand for institutionalised regional security cooperation and reflects on the conflicting interstate interests on the institutional design of the SADC’s central security organ. External actors play no significant role, but a lack of compromise between the leading military powers, South Africa and Zimbabwe, is initially responsible …

Conflict management in massive polylogues: A case study from YouTube
2014
Abstract The aim of this paper is to examine how conflict begins, unfolds and ends in a massive, new media polylogue, specifically, a YouTube polylogue. Extant research has looked into how conflict begins, unfolds and/or ends. However, to our knowledge, the models and taxonomies developed so far have not been applied to the analysis of the mediated conflict of massive polylogues. Drawing on the difference between methods of analysis that are natively digital versus those that have been digitized, i.e., they were developed for off-line research and then migrated on-line, one of the goals of this paper is to test whether non-natively digital, extant models and taxonomies, if digitized, would …
La gestione dei conflitti: un’analisi descrittiva dai Rapporti di Autovalutazione delle scuole della Provincia di Palermo
2019
Il presente contributo intende promuovere una riflessione sul tema della gestione dei conflitti in ambito scolastico a partire da un’analisi descrittiva dei Rapporti di Autovalutazione delle scuole del I ciclo della Provincia di Palermo riguardanti l’anno scolastico 2017/18. La rilevazione dei dati è avvenuta attraverso il portale del MIUR “Scuola in Chiaro”. In particolare, sono stati presi in considerazione gli indicatori appartenenti alla dimensione relazionale (3.2.f ) dell’area “Ambiente di apprendimento” della sezione “Processi” del RAV oltre agli eventuali indicatori elaborati dalla scuola e ai punti di forza e di debolezza elaborati sulla base di alcune domande stimolo fornite. L’an…

Conflict management in groups that work in two different communication contexts: Face-to-face and computer-mediated communication
2002
The aim of this study is to test the differences in quality and frequency of conflict management behavior as a function of the interaction between task and communication medium, and practice time in continuing groups that work over two different media: computer mediated communication (CMC) and face to face communication (FTF). Conflict management behavior is studied through observed behavior and categorized by experts. Two conflict management behavior categories are differentiated: positive and negative conflict management behavior. A laboratory experiment was carried out comparing 12 groups of 4 members each, working over two communication media (6 groups FTF and 6 groups over CMC). Group…
Mediazione e convivenza: cura delle relazioni nel Quartiere Vista Alegre di Castelldefells
2015
L’implementazione del progetto di sviluppo “Piano Quartiere della Città di Castelldefels” – intervento di ristrutturazione urbana e riqualificazione delle aree di edilizia popolare realizzato dal Municipio di Castelldefels (Catalogna) negli anni 2011/13 – è stato accompagnato da un intervento di comunità realizzato dall’impresa sociale Mediacion Y Convivencia, su mandato dello stesso Municipio. Un primo bilancio dell’esperienza mostra come la mediazione sia particolarmente efficace in materia di convivenza. Per trasformare la convivenza in un nuovo scenario favorevole per tutti è indispensabile, infatti, un approccio che trascenda la mera contesa e la stessa risoluzione dei conflitti (spess…
Good moments in parents' spousal relationships: A daily relational maintenance perspective
2010
This study examined positively experienced spousal moments among couples with young children. The diary data were gathered from 95 women and 55 men in 95 Finnish families over a seven-day period using an open-ended question. Seven kinds of activities were identified in the descriptions of moments: doings, conversations, presence, positivity, physical intimacy, support, and conflict management. Doings related to shared tasks and favors as well as conversations concerning catching up and family issues were more often mentioned by women than by men. Notably, positive spousal moments also often included children who were described as a landscape for the spousal relationship, as participants in …
