Relationship conflicts, on the other hand, involve interpersonal tensions and issues between individuals, often unrelated to the work itself. Distribution conflicts occur when there are disagreements over the allocation of resources, such as money, time, or responsibilities. Each type of conflict requires different approaches and strategies for resolution.

Interrole conflict occurs when the expectations of different roles a person holds are in conflict with each other. For example, a person may experience interrole conflict when the demands of their work role conflict with the demands of their family role. On the other hand, intrarole conflict occurs when the expectations within a single role are in conflict with each other.

A Precarious Life : Community and Conflict in a Deindustrialized Town
A Precarious Life offers an internal view of conflict among one of the most socioeconomically disadvantaged communities in Britain.The long-term 'ethnography at home' is narrated through the life and death of the author's father, Paul, who worked in the coke ovens of the Corby steelworks until its closure in 1980.After closure, Paul ran a mobile grocery shop on his council estate and surrounding areas, which suffered an assortment of injuries in the post-industrial decades that followed.By engaging closely with the social practices of Paul and members of his relational community, this book provides a rare emic account of the classed and racialized tensions that occur within a precariously situated subsection of society.Through this process, layers of meaning are noticed, articulated, and deployed to make intelligible communal tensions.As the chapters progress, a complex ethical terrain is brought into view, where moral conflicts and dilemmas are rife.From this new perspective, a disjuncture becomes apparent between top-down theories that guide the criminal law, on the one hand, and norms that make better sense of the social world navigated by residents on an over-criminalized estate, on the other.A Precarious Life calls on legal scholars to understand better and engage with this alternative normative order, which embraces an ethics of honesty, relationality, solidarity, and care-captured by the central notion of mutuality.

Arabic Media and the Ukrainian Conflict : Discourse and Ideology
Focused on two renowned Arabic networks, Al-Jazeera and Al-Arabiyya, this book examines Arabic media discourses and strategies adopted in the coverage of the conflict in Ukraine. Providing an in-depth textual analysis of the coverage of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the book focuses on the types of discourse employed, key linguistic devices used, and the representation of different actors, whether directly or indirectly involved.This encompasses the attitudes and perceptions of Russians, Ukrainians, Europeans, Americans, and NATO, as well as the wider international community.The book aims to establish the inextricable link between language and the socio-cultural and political ideologies that contribute to the production of media discourse on conflicts.It is argued that some of these ideologies are represented through language, which itself reflects the networks' policies, the influence of their sponsors, and their individual stances towards the war. The book will be of interest to students and researchers in a range of fields, including Arabic and Middle Eastern Studies, Media and Communications, and Applied Linguistics, as well as to general readers interested in media’s coverage of conflicts.
