| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The need to promote common goals, aspirations and shared values in the resolution of cross-cultural conflicts cannot be over-emphasized. Conflict resolution processes seek to find ways of satisfying the interests of all parties in conflict whilst promoting dialogue on issues that appear intractable. To achieve lasting outcomes, conflict resolution processes must assist in defining overarching needs, goals and interests. This article proposes that values of justice, freedom, equality, and peace are critical for cross-cultural conflict resolution and should be promoted through conflict resolution processes. Promoting values through conflict resolution processes will assist in creating overarching goals, needs and interests as well as producing lasting outcomes. In addition, promoting values will pave the way for addressing the root causes of cross-cultural conflicts. |
