Summary/Abstract: From the psychological perspective of conflict analysis, outbreaks of conflicts are dependent on the appearance of particular perceptions, beliefs, attitudes and motivations, all of which must change for conflict resolution to occur. But because this article focuses on conflicts, which are characterized by their violent viciousness and durability, greater emphasis is given to reconciliation than to conflict resolution. In such cases,conflict resolution leads only the formal termination of the conflict. The establishment of peaceful relations between the opposing structures depends on a successful reconciliation process, which in turn requires a change of the conflictive ethos and formation of the alternative peace ethos.
