Conflict Analysis, Morfology, Pattern Recognition, Artificial Intelligence, Neutral Evaluation, Methodology

Abstract

Our starting point is the importance of conflict analysis as a current need. The causal analysis of conflicts is considered insufficient. The difficulties of analyzing conflicts are objectives. We calls for a new paradigm based on the examination of similarities and differences between conflicts. There are elementary conflicts that shape a true morphology of conflicts. The morphology is based on the recognition of patterns in a usable way using tools based on Artificial intelligence. An outline of the General Theory of Conflict Morphology is formulated and the need to enhance of External Expert Neutral Evaluation as a professional resource to fit for future conflict analysts.
