PROPOSING A THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK TO INVESTIGATE CONFLICT: PERSPECTIVE OF A SCUFFLE.
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Research (IJAR) - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper proposes a theoretical framework for investigating conflict from the perspective of violence (scuffle). This framework is conceived to addressthe deficiencies and challenges in applying the existing theories in investigating violence. The paper employed in-depth content analysis, thematic approach and critical analysis to develop the proposed model for assessing or investigating violence (scuffle). The proposed theoretical framework and models are presented to justify that violence (scuffle) could be analysed taking into account wide range of multi-facets concepts. The framework and models in this paper rely upon the theoretical frameworks which are based on an extensive literature review, comprising general conflict-based theories and violence frameworks, critiquing to identify strengths and incorporating practical realities. The proposed framework or models in this paper revealed that violence could be investigated from two main interactive variables: environmental variables to violence and Parties? propensities to violence. The environmental factors are declassified into contextual or situational factors and external influences which are assessed to be either augmenting or nullifying factors. It is also revealed in the framework or the models that the propensities could be scored based on either inner inducement or inner inhibition to violence.Employing this proposed theoretical framework, investigators, peace experts and conflict managers could identify sources and causes of violence and useful approaches for carrying on investigations into violence. It is recommended that investigators and researchers rely on the proposed models to develop quantitative instrument to assess the likelihood of violence.
