Typically, such escalation episodes are ignited by highly disruptive events: Point-like triggers at a specific juncture of time and space that facilitate and precipitate collective action. Despite rich anecdotal evidence, triggering events as proximate causes of identity conflicts remain underexplored in empirical research. Challenging the prevailing linear perspective, we argue that the magnitude of a triggering event holds little significance in explaining the intensity of the ensuing ethnic or religious upheavals. Using a new, human-coded dataset of 642 escalation episodes that details the specific triggering events and the intensity of each wave of protest or riot, we test our hypothesis by applying Bayes Factors and Bayesian regression models. Our findings provide robust empirical evidence for our hypothesis: Major precipitating events are no more likely to trigger high-intensity upheavals than minor events. These results have significant implications for the generalizability of studies that focus on specific types of triggering events, such as repression and “focal days”, and the overall potential of forecasting the escalation of intrastate conflict.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":39736,"journal":{"name":"Conflict Resolution Quarterly","volume":"43 1","pages":"41-59"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144927731","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This intense, sudden wave of necessity broke through societal inertias that, for years, had put pressure on people with disability needs to try to make the case that certain changes—such as remote work—were feasible at all. The speed with which people were able to make these adaptations shattered outdated policies that had made so many possible accessibility accommodations seem like they were impractical and impossible. In the past, changes like remote work seemed to be “fundamental alterations,” or “undue hardships,” or a person being unable to do “essential functions” of their job—all justifications that allow workplaces, schools, and other entities to deny reasonable accommodation requests. Thanks to the pandemic, suddenly the entire world realized a lot of things were not as “essential” as they had previously seemed, and a new wave of flexibility and adaptability emerged.

It employed a combination of descriptive, correlational, and causal-comparative models within the quantitative paradigm. The sample consisted of 225 adults. The Childhood Traumas Scale and CCCSM scale were used to collect data. Both descriptive and inferential techniques were utilized for statistical analysis. Results showed that most of the participants' traumas were related to emotional neglect, whereas the least of the traumas were associated with sexual abuse. The mean levels of CCCSM were higher for those without trauma when compared with those with low, medium, and high trauma. Traumas were positively correlated with stress management (<i>r</i> = 0.174, <i>p</i> < 0.01) and negatively correlated with conflict (<i>r</i> = −0.258, <i>p</i> < 0.01), as well as communication management (<i>r</i> = −0.369, <i>p</i> < 0.01). Emotional neglect emerged as a significant predictor of deficits in communication and conflict management, explaining 14.3% and 7.9% of the variance, respectively. This underscores its detrimental impact on essential interpersonal skills. Conversely, the positive association between emotional abuse and stress management (3.8% variance) suggests a complex interplay in which certain traumas may inadvertently enhance coping mechanisms. Understanding these dynamics is essential for developing effective interventions and support systems for trauma survivors.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":39736,"journal":{"name":"Conflict Resolution Quarterly","volume":"43 1","pages":"27-36"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144927658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally to AI applications approaching and selecting job applicants, AI usage might also be promising in employment negotiations as the final step of recruitment. However, it is largely unclear how applicants would react to the use of AI technology in such a context marked by high stakes and (at least partly) conflicting interests, which need to be resolved to terminate the recruitment process successfully. Therefore, we examined how AI negotiation agents influence negotiators' trust in and expectations about an upcoming employment negotiation. In a preregistered experimental vignette study, participants (<i>n</i> = 291) imagined to prepare for an employment negotiation. Varying the type of negotiation counterpart (human—AI with avatar—AI without avatar), we assessed participants' trust intentions and subjective value expectations regarding the anticipated negotiation. We found higher trust and more positive expectations for human counterparts as compared to AI counterparts, regardless of whether the AI was presented with or without an avatar. However, participants' technology-related attitudes and skills attenuated this effect, leading to less negative effects for AI as a negotiation counterpart when participants possessed high skills and positive attitudes regarding digital technologies. Overall, this study provides initial evidence of how people would react to AI agents in mixed-motive and conflict resolution settings and may serve as a starting point for developing evidence-based guidelines for designing AI agents for HR and conflict resolution settings.</p>","PeriodicalId":39736,"journal":{"name":"Conflict Resolution Quarterly","volume":"43 1","pages":"5-13"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/crq.21472","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144927736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet relatively little academic attention has been given to exploring how cosmopolitan ideals could be leveraged as a tool for sustainable peacebuilding in multicultural and multi-ethnic communities. This study aimed to address this gap by connecting cosmopolitanism, ethnic pluralism, ethnic conflict and sustainable peace. The study explored the perceptions of ethnicity and their dynamics in conflict escalation and sophistication in Northern Ghana with focus on the Kusaasi-Mamprusi conflict in Bawku Traditional Area. The purpose is to propose a pathway towards the gradual removal of ethnic boundaries for the emergence of a cosmopolitan ethnic identity—a liberalized identity that integrates values, norms and traditions of all cultural groups in a community. The research adopted a qualitative approach using interviews and focus group discussions to gather data from 50 purposively sampled participants belonging to the Kusaasi, Mamprusi, Mossi, Busanga, and Hausa ethnic societies. The study found that ethnic divisions worsened the conflict dynamics in Bawku. While participants recognized the need for a peaceful coexistence, dual claims to ancestral lands created an indigene-settler dichotomy making peacebuilding efforts much more difficult. The study argues that the development of a cosmopolitan ethnic society that integrates all the core values of the discerned ethnic societies in Bawku holds the potential to de-escalate conflicts and promote peaceful coexistence. Public sensitization, education, and awareness programmes are recommended to promote tolerance, respect, and appreciation for unity in diversity.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":39736,"journal":{"name":"Conflict Resolution Quarterly","volume":"42 4","pages":"543-555"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144197341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Advanced AI systems now extend beyond administrative tasks to analyze complex legal data, predict case outcomes, and even generate arbitral awards. This evolution addresses the growing volume and complexity of international disputes, particularly in commercial and investment arbitration. However, the adoption of AI introduces profound legal and ethical challenges. Key concerns include the absence of human judgment, potential biases embedded in AI algorithms, and the opacity of their decision-making processes, accountability issues, and data privacy risks. Critically, current legal frameworks such as the New York Convention were not designed to accommodate AI-generated awards, raising questions about their legitimacy, procedural fairness, and enforceability. This article explores these intersections, focusing on how AI impacts arbitration's efficiency and objectivity, the legal and ethical challenges arising from AI integration, and the extent to which existing legal frameworks accommodate AI-generated awards. Employing a multidisciplinary approach that includes legal scholarship, case studies, and technological research, the analysis examines the practical implications of AI in arbitration and the specific enforcement challenges of AI-generated awards.
