   %UNDERSTAND ROBUST CONFLICT MISCONCEPTION ADDICT 881216

To   deal  creatively  with  robust  conflicts   and
misconceptions  it helps to understand the dynamics of the
structure  which  makes the conflicts and   misconceptions
robust;   able to survive in the presence of major threats
to their structure.

Whatever  survives  has some structure which is  the
basis  of  survival.     The structure is the key  to  the
elements  of  the whole holding together in the  face   of
threats  to  the structure.    The elements hold  together
because of how they relate to each other,  how they inter-
connect  and  inter-communicate;   because of the dynamics
of  their interactions and their structure.

One  of  many ways to understand the  structure  and
dynamics   of conflicts and misconceptions is through  the
articulation  of perceptions of the elements  and   inter-
relationships among the elements.    Through  articulation
different  people  with different perceptions can   inter-
compare   their perceptions and refine them to  the  point
that  different  perceptions come together in a   coherent
whole    conception  of  the  ways  in  which   persistent
conflicts  and  misconceptions survive in spite  of   what
appear to be major threats to their continuity.

This whole process is a non-objective process.    It
can  not be an objective process within the   conventional
scientific    paradigm   because  the   articulators   are
themselves participants in the dynamics of the  persistent
conflicts   and   misconceptions.       The   process   of
articulation  is of a different kind than the process   of
scientific  research.    It is a misconception to  believe
that  the process of articulation can be wisely  patterned
after  the   pattern  of  scientific  research  which   is
objective  in an effort to transcend bias.

The  conflicts  between the scientific paradigm  and
the  paradigm by which we may understand our conflicts and
misconceptions  are  conflicts which cannot  be   resolved
within  the  scientific paradigm.   It is  collusive  self
deception to believe otherwise.
