Conflict Management is a process of making progress ndash developing mutual gains of both parties achieving agreements lying foundations for further negotiations or managing the conflict as much as possible to reduce violence1048698 In legal sense ndash CM is application of existing laws amp regulations to ensure the rights amp provides remedies that reconcile past prejudices1048698 In the political discourse management of conflict is sharing of power and privileges1048698 Two schools of thoughts prevails within CM Discourse1048698 Conflict as lsquoPathological amp Dysfunctionalrsquo ndash needs to be suppressed or end it1048698 Conflict as functional means for lsquoSocial Changersquo ndash constructive social process

Power mediation is a special form of conflict management with the same criteria as the outcome-oriented approach but including the possibility of applying external power including financial carrots andor military sticks on the parties
