Destructive conflict and confrontation has largely negative
results – it pushes people apart, destroys relationships, and leads to a
host of negative personal and social changes including an escalation of
violence, fear, and distrust. It is contrasted with constructive conflict
and confrontation, which has more benefits than costs – one that pulls
people together, strengthens and/or improves their relationship (by
redefining it in a more appropriate or useful way) and one that leads to
a positive change in all of the parties involved. |
