The True Story Behind Why Conflict Occurs.
Have you ever wondered what the world would be like without conflict? How conflict shows that others are standing up for what they believe in? In the world today, there is always some kind of conflict, even if it is an argument with friends or family. It can even be a severe as a world war. These things are telling us that we are different and have different beliefs. I think this is a good thing because it shows that people will fight to stand up for what they believe in and show others that they will not stop until they get it. This also occurs in books as it makes the book interesting. In the novel The Kite Runner by Khaled Hasseini, has 2 very different cultural groups. Through out the book the Pashtuns and Hazaras are very different and can never come to an agreement. They are also very different, as the Pashtuns are the upper class and they are very wealthy. Meanwhile, the Hazaras are the lower class and the ones who are frowned upon in the Afghanistan culture. The book demonstrates that the the Pashtuns believe that Hazaras are these types of people who don't belong and they need to be wiped out from the entire country, but the Hazaras don't agree and create this conflict between these two very different ethic groups. This results in there being conflict and the Hazaras standing up form what the believe in and stand for. This completely creates the world to be a better place in the end. I believe that without conflict there will not be any diversity within the world, as we will all agree and be one mind that thinks alike. Without the Hazaras standing up to the Pashtuns it would be a world where no one knows how to think for themselves and have a passion about something. This will end up with no one standing up for what they think is right and we, as Canadians,will not of had the rights and freedoms that we have today without war and conflict. Therefore, it is okay for there to be conflict as it creates a world of many different kinds of people and allows peoples voices to be heard.

Yes conflict may have a positive impact. But what about the people who are never able to rise above the conflict, and continue to be put further and further down? Whose voices cannot be heard? What about the child slaves in Africa? They have faced conflict of which we can not imagine, but still they are put further and further down.
