The Changing Nature of the Conflict. From Global to Local

A misunderstanding or a disagreement, an incompatible situation or a competition between opponents that can generate into violence, conflict is a constant feature of human society. It can lead, depending on the context, to development or, on the contrary, to the dissolution of the organization or society. From the international relations’ point of view, a conflict is a dynamic process based on the clashing of interests of the international system’s participants. After the end of the Cold War, the change of conditions and determinations at the international level imprinted a specific evolution of the international conflict by transforming it in accordance with the conversion recorded by the global power architecture. In the same logic can be explained the reverse of the conditioning relationship, respectively of transforming the structure of the international system depending on the stake and the magnitude of the international conflict.
