      Supporters of "The Domination System"  often work to
raise  the stakes in confrontations with those people whom
they perceive to be their "enemies":                      
                                                          
     1.  Making "losing" costly to their "enemies".       
     2.  Making "winning" dear to their "friends".        
     3.  Making "domination" look more important to all.  
     4.  Making cooperation look suspicious to all.       
     5.  Making it harder for peacemakers to succeed.     
     6.  Making "win-win" conflict resolution difficult.  
                                                          
     In  order  to transcend and subvert  "The  Domination
System"   peacemakers need to work to lower the stakes  in
confrontations  between people who perceive each other  to
be "enemies".    Dominant people are constantly working to
raise the stakes, promote confrontations, extend conflicts
and undermine true-conflict-resolutions ---  because  they
see  their  only  hope  to be in totally  defeating  their
perceived "enemies".   They see no hope in the absence  of
the  humiliation  of  their "enemies".   Sweet  fruits  of
advantages gained are not enough.  Their "enemies" must be
forced to eat "bitter fruits"   before the  supporters  of
"The   Domination   System"    can  gain  any  sense    of
satisfaction.    Their dominant patterns of attitudes  and
thought are not healthy.
