Communal integrity is not possible in the absence of personal integrity, and vice versa. Together we stand. Divided we fall. Misunderstanding and alienation divide people and undermine integrity. Internalization of unresolved conflicts---undermine personal integrity. Dishonest conformity to cultural norms undermines personal integrity, and thereby cultural integrity. Affirmations of honest dialogue---promotes personal and communal integrity. Defending communication rights---promotes integrity. Conflict resolution minimizes personal and communal disintegration---by reducing internalization of unresolved conflicts in collusive patterns of behavior. Affirmations of values which inhibit open and honest dialogue promote disintegration---both personally and communally. Conformity at the expense of openness and honesty---brings disintegration of the community that demands conformity. Disintegration is the decay of integrity. Cooperation and creative conflict resolution---pervade an integrative community. Competition and violence---pervade a disintegrative community. Dialogue versus secrecy. Vulnerability and intimacy versus defensiveness and manipulations. Affection versus respect for power. Trust versus contract. Love versus techniques. Security versus insecurity. Integrity versus disintegration. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in www.essayz.com Search for Integrity and Honesty (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
