Theoretical approaches to the determination of political conflict

Abstract

Conflicts. They are found in all areas of human activity and are often among the important and exciting events of human life. Political conflicts are a necessary and important part of the state existence. But sometimes they have terrible consequences. Therefore, having information on their nature, content, types, etc.we can smooth out their consequences. In this article the author attempts were made to identify theoretical approaches to the definition of "political conflict" and to characterize the essence of the concepts of "conflict", "social conflict", "political conflict". Special attention was focused on identifying the differences between the concepts of "conflict" and " contradiction".
