INTRODUCTION
Conflict, defined as opposition among social entities directed against one
another is a derivative of a Latin word confligere meaning to strike together
(Quincy Wright, 1993) !t is a world of consistent conflict that we inha"it,
whether in #ri Lan$a, %ngola, &wanda, 'ashmir, orth ast !ndia, or #omalia,
hordes of humanity are struggling to cope with the conse*uences of destructive
conflicts Conflict is also defined as the pursuit of incompara"le goals "y
different groups %rmed conflicts are conflicts where parties on "oth sides
resort to the use of force +iolent conflict is similar to armed conflict "ut
includes only onesided violence such as genocides against unarmed civilians
Conflict resolution is a term implying deeprooted sources of conflict that are
addressed and resolved -his means that "ehaviour is no longer violent,
attitudes are no longer hostile, and the structure of the conflict has also
undergone changes .owever, the term refers "oth to the process (or intention)
to "ring a"out these changes, and to the completion of the process (.ugh /iall
et al, 1999) Conflict resolution is also used in two senses0 one, normative,
other descriptive !n normative sense, conflict resolution is defined as a change
in a situation which is accepta"le to the parties % peaceful resolution is the
achievement of such a resolution without violence, and a ust resolution is one
that is fair to "oth the parties 2eaceful, ust resolution is the ideal !n the
descriptive sense, conflict resolution is often used to mean the way a conflict
ends, irrespective of whether all parties find the outcome accepta"le (/iall,
199)
-here are various schools of thought a"out conflict 4ne such school defines
conflict in terms of a clash of interest "etween interdependent parties 'enneth
5oulding, a mem"er of this #chool writes0
Conflicts over interests are situations in which some change
makes at least one party better off and the other party worse off,
each in their own estimation. If the change is positive sum, it
opens the possibility, that both parties may be better off. If thechange is zero sum or negative sum, this perception is no
longer available.
-his school is mainly concerned with international conflict !ts primary aim is
the avoidance or resolution of armed conflicts "etween great powers -his type
of conflict is also $nown as #ymmetric Conflict
-he other school which is "est associated with 6ohan 7altung argues that
inustice and 8structural violence are situations of conflict even in the a"sence
of physical violence and confrontation !n 19:1, %dam Curle defines conflict as

any situation where the potential development of one group is impeded "y
another -his school is more concerned with the domination and e;ploitation of
the poor (periphery) "y the rich (the centre), "oth within particular societies andin world society as a whole -his type of conflict is also $nown as asymmetric
conflict
%nother definition of conflict is given "y 5engt .oglund %ccording to him,
there are three elementary aspects of any society and it consist of0
(i) % set of individuals

.ere contradictions refer to the underlying conflict situation Which includes
the actual or perceived 8incompati"ility of goals "etween conflict parties
At ti tude includes the parties perceptions and misperceptions of each other and
themselves -his can "e positive or negative "ut in violent conflicts parties tend
to develop demeaning stereotypes of each other
ehaviourcan include cooperation or coercion, gestures signifying conciliation
or hostility
7altung argues that all three components have to "e present in a full conflict %
conflict structure without conflictual attitudes of "ehaviour is a latent (or
structural) conflict .e sees conflict as a dynamic process in which structure,
attitudes and "ehaviour are constantly changing and influencing each other
-he developing tradition of thin$ing a"out conflict and conflict resolution is
e;tremely relevant as the fi;ed structures of sovereignty and governance
"rea$s down %l l over the world, societ ies are facing st resses from popula tion
growth, structural changes in the world economy, migration into cities,
environmental degradation and rapid social change #ocieties with institutions,
rules or norms for managing conflict and well esta"lished traditions of
governance are generally "etter a"le to accommodate peacefully to change?
those with wea$er governance, fragile social "onds and little consensus on
values of traditions are more li$ely to "uc$le %nd strengthening the capacity
of conflict resolution within societies and political institutions, especially
preventa tive ly, is a vi ta l part of the response to the phenomenon of warlordism
and ethnonationlism
Conflict resolution is an integral part of the wor$ towards development, social
ust ice and social transformation, which aims to tac$ le the pro"le ms of which
mercenaries and child soldiers are symptoms
Conflict, is not unavoida"le "ut can indeed "e prevented .ence, necessary
efforts should "e made which is the aim of conflict resolution 2otential sources
of conflict need to "e identified and analysed with a view to their early
resolution, and concrete steps must "e ta$en to forestall armed confrontation !t
these preventive measures are superseded "y a sharpening of the conflict, then
an early warning must "e given in time for more rigorous conflict containment
to ta$e place

of the norms of sovereignty and noninterference is "eginning to open spare for
international interventions
Question arises as to how we can prevent conflicts from "ecoming violent
%ctive measures to prevent conflict can "e divided into two t ypes 4ne is aimed
at preventing situations with a clear capacity for violence from degenerating
into armed conflict (Light 2revention) %im is to prevent latent or threshold
confl ic ts f rom "ecoming severe armed confl ic ts through diplomatic
interventions, long term missions and private mediation efforts -he second
mode of conflict prevention is termed as F=eep 2reventionG -his aims to
address the root causes, including underlying confl icts of interest and
relationships

CONFLICT RESOLUTION : THEORETICL UNDERPINNIN!S
4f the various schools of thought in conflict resolution, credit for its foundationgoes to pioneers li$e 'enneth 5oulding, 6ohan 7altung, 6ohn 5urton, the
.arvard #chool, %dam Curle and lise 5oulding
%ccording to 'enneth 5oulding, conflict resolution meant the development of
a $nowledge "ase in which Fsocial data stationsG would emerge forming a
system analogous to a networ$ of weather stations which would gather a
range of social, economic and political data to produce indicators to identify
social temperature and pressure and predict cold or warm fronts %ccording to
5oulding, war can "e prevented "y the development of a research and
information capa"ility
-he second pioneer is the #candinavian peace researcher from orway called
6ohan 7altung Aor 7altung, 7andhian ideas formed a persistent theme in his
conflict resolution theories .is was search for positive peace in the form of
human empathy, solidarity and community in resolving conflicts .is theory
was "ased on addressing Fstructural violenceG "y unveiling and transforming
structures of imperialism and oppression, and the importance of searching for
alternative values in nonwestern cosmologies such as 5uddhism
-he third Ffounder figureG in the field of conflict resolution is 6ohn 5urton .eis most famous for propounding the F.uman eeds -heoryG -he positing of a
universal drive to satisfy "asic needs such as security, identity and recognition
provided 5urton wi th the lin$ "e tween causal analysis and modes of reso lution
precisely "ecause of the di fferences "etween in terest s and needs !n tere sts,
"e ing pr imari ly a"out materi al 8goods, can "e traded, "argained and negotiated
eeds, "eing nonmate rial , cannot "e traded or sa ti sf ied "y power "argaining
With proper understanding, therefore, conflicts "ased on unsatisfied needs can
"e reso lved
%dam Curle pointed to the importance of mediation and reconciliation themesin peace research and practice in the conflict > ridden world .e identified four
elements to his mediation process Airst, the mediator acts to "uild, maintain
and improve communications #econdly, to provide information to and "etween
conflict parties -hird, to 8"efriend the conflict parties and fourthly, to
encourage what he refers to as active mediation, that is to say to cultivate a
willingness to engage in cooperative negotiations
%nother remar$a"le contri"ution in the field of conflict resolution theory was
made "y lise 5oulding who introduced the idea of 8imaging the future -he
idea was a powerful way of ena"ling people to "rea$ out of the defensive

pr ivate sheells in to which they retrea ted, to encourage them to part ic ipate in
the construction of a peaceful and tolerant glo"al culture Women, children and
many culture communities, according to lise 5oulding needed to theaccommodated for a glo"al civic culture and peaceful pro"lem solving among
nations Aor her, peacema$ing demands specific 8crafts and s$ills and all
those activities that lie at the heart of all human interaction that will determine
whether, in the end, we are peacema$ers or warma$ers

government has pursued a policy of delay and most of the accord points have
not "een implemented
THE CHITT!ON! HILL TRCT CCORD
-he Chittagong .ill -racts %ccord was signed on =ecem"er 199: "y %"dul
.asnat %"dulla, Chief Whip of the 7overnment of 5angladesh (745) and the
head of the government appointed Committee on the Chittagong Hill Tracts
(C.-) and 65 Larma, the president of the 2ar"atya Chattagram 6ana #amhati
#amiti (6##) -he %ccord came after two years of negotiations "etween 745s
C.- Committee and the 6## "ringing an and to a J years old conflict -he
uni*ue feature a"out this accord was that there was no third party mediation,
unli$e in other compara"le FpeaceG process around the world, li$e in orthern
!reland and ast -imor -he C.- %ccord of 199: addresses various issues,
the most important of which are the following0
=ecommissioning and deposit of arms "y 6## fighters?
-he reha"ilitation of the e;com"atants?
-he reha"ilitation of the international refugees and internally displaced
people ?
-he dismantling of nonpermanent military camps and the return of soldiers
to their regular "arrac$s
#elfgovernment through district and regional councils and indigenous
institutions0
Land and resource rights
-he recognition of the cultural identity of the indigenous people and their
laws and customs
%mong the important provisions of the %ccord is the re affirmation of the role
of the hereditary circle chiefs and their su"ordinate headmen in the district
administration and in the indigenous udicial system
% committee was formed under the chairmanship of the Chief Whip of the
745 to oversee the implementation of the %ccord -he %ccord has "een
hailed "y many as a 8milestone in the history of 5angladesh -he government
of 5angladesh claimed that it was a reasona"le and practica"le settlement to a

delicate and hitherto intracta"le pro"lem 4n the other hand, the %ccord has
"een severe ly cr it icised as an unfa ir and il legal agreement #ome of the
criticisms include the allegation that the %ccord is contrary to the constitutionof 5angladesh and that it compromises the territorial integrity and sovereignty
of the country %lso, there are allegations that the %ccord violates the
fundamental rights of the ethnic 5engali inha"itants of the C.-
!nspite of all the criticisms, the C.- %ccord will go down in the history of
conflicts in #outh %sia and the world as one of the finest e;amples of solved
armed conflict -he C.- %ccord of 199: was a result of protracted political
negotiations and it involved a num"er of compromises, due to political
e;pediencies, and for the sa$e of esta"lishing lasting peace in the wartorn
region of #outh %sia -he protracted conflict resolution process of C.- can"e traced ti ll 19KJ when the fi rst agreement was signed "etween the F2ri tiG
faction of the 6## and the government of 5angladesh, represented "y the
commander of the E th !nfantry division of the 5angladesh %rmy stationed in
the C.- -he second %ccord happened in 19KK during the rshad regime
which finally paved way for the 199: %ccord
-he %ccord, according to =evashish &oy,
%&hould be looked upon as reasonable compromise for the greater interests of
peace and social 'u st ic e. It sh ould no t be looked upon as the fina l cu lminat ion
of the struggle of the downtrodden people of the C(), but as the beginning of
a new struggle, through democratic and peaceful means* a struggle for peace,
dignity, human rights, progress and amity.

SUR.EY OF LITERTURE:
% num"er of art icles, papers and "oo$s have "een written on Confl ict&esolution in general out there is a dearth of literature giving a comprehensive
analysis of conflicts and conflict resolution processes in #outh %sia in general
and orth ast !ndia and Chittagong .ill -racts in particular -herefore, most
of this study will "e "ased on e;tensive fieldwor$ which will "e underta$en
during the period of study
4f the maor "oo$s consulted, mention may "e made of 6ohn 5urtons "oo$s
namely Conflict+ esolution and -revention, Conflict+ (uman eeds )heory,
Conflict+ eadings in /anagement and esolution and Conflict+ -ractices in
/anagement &e tt lement and eso lu tion.
6ohn 5urton regarded as the third FfounderfigureG of the field of Conflict
&esolution stressed the need of the application of needs theory through a
Fcontrolled communication or pro"lem solving approachG to unloc$ intracta"le
conflict %ccording to 5urton, while FinterestsG "eing of material, FgoodsG can
"e traded , "argained and negotiated eeds such as identi ty, securi ty and
recognition, "eing nonmaterial cannot "e traded or satisfied "y power
"argaining With proper understanding, therefore conflicts "ased on sa ti sf ied
needs can "e resolved
.owever, the early empirical studies of war and conflict were done "y 2itirim
#oro$in (&ussian), Lewis Ary &ichardson (nglish) and Quincy Wright
(%merican) in 19JDs Quincy Wright wrote in 19J1 a paper called F-he ature
of ConflictG for the )he 0estern -olitical 1uarterly wherein he defines conflict
as the inconsistency in the motions, sentiments, purposes or claims of entities,
and sometimes to the process of resolving these inconsistencies %ccording to
him, a conflict is solved "y definitive acceptance of a decision "y all parties
and he stresses on nonviolence methods to resolve conflicts
'enneth 5oulding, who set up the 2ournal of Conf li ct eso lu tion in 19J: andthe Centre for &esearch on Conflict &esolution in 19J9s pu"lication focussed
firmly on issue of preventing war
6ohan 7altung, foundereditor of the 2ournal of -eace esearch introduced the
concept of 8Conflict -riangle .is central theme was the search for positive
peace in the form of human empathy, so lidari ty and community, the pr iori ty of
addressing 8structural violence "y unveiling and transforming structures of
imperialism and oppression and the importance of searching for alternative
values in nonwestern cosmologies such as 5uddhism
