Conflict-free Conflict Resolution (CFCR) is an emerging theory and practice of conflict resolution. Building upon traditions of innovation within the field of dispute resolution, as well as insights from a variety of disciplines including conflict studies, peace studies and developmental psychology, CFCR aims to be a unity-centered practice. Both the method and outcomes of CFCR are attempts to reflect the possibilities of helping to create conditions of unity between individuals and communities. The purpose of this article is primarily descriptive, aiming to give an initial overview of CFCR as a practice. This description is rooted in the initial applications of CFCR in a number of contexts. In this article, the theoretical underpinnings of the CFCR model are summarized, CFCR's connections with the contemporary conflict resolution scholarship are explored, and the three stages of CFCR are outlined.

This article provides a nascent developmental model of conflict resolution & explores how such a model challenges theorists & practitioners in the field of conflict resolution to engage with the concept of unity. The developmental model states that the ways in which human beings understand, approach, & attempt to resolve conflicts can be analogized to the developmental stages of infancy, childhood, adolescence, & adulthood. Further, the model argues that conflict resolution can occur in four modes -- S-Mode (Self-Centered); A-Mode (Authoritarian); P-Mode (Power Struggle); & C-Mode (Consultative Mode). Each of these modes corresponds to a particular nature of conflict resolution that, respectively, may be survival based, force based, power based, or unity based. The authors suggest that the C-Mode remains largely unexplored & that conflict resolution is primarily constructed & understood today according to the dynamics of the A-Mode & P-Mode. The key to exploring the C-Mode is to analyze the concept of unity & its implications for both conflict resolution theory & practice. 2 Tables, 17 References. Adapted from the source document.
