This course will provide an overview of conflict management methods congruent with the demands of multiple domains and levels of social work practice. Students in all concentrations must address conflicts arising between people whose lives are interdependent whether they are board members, neighbors, or spouses. The community activist working to develop interorganizational collaboratives and the social work clinician helping individuals and families resolve disputes must both learn about the dynamics of face-to-face conflicts and the range of techniques and strategies available to help prevent, de-escalate, and resolve such differences. This course will offer practical suggestions for both assessment and intervention drawing from micro and macro theory and practice.
