The Introductory Studies for Political Conflict Theories

根據斯德哥爾摩國際和平研究所的報告，在1980至2000年期間全球每年約發生三、四十起武裝政治衝突，可見政治衝突仍然持續威脅著亞、非、拉丁美洲等新興民主國家的政治發展。本文嘗試介紹西方政治衝突相關的理論，包括階級對抗、相對剝奪、資源動員、政府管制、依賴、菁英競爭、文化差異、族群歧視、與政治機會結構等理論。

According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), there have been between thirty and forth political armed conflicts in progress in each year of 1980s and 1990s. The political conflict still threats the newly democratic development in Asia, Africa, and Latin American. In this paper, I intend to introduce the theories of political conflict. The theories of political conflict include class antagonism, relative deprivation, resources mobilization, government regulation, dependency, intra-elite competition, cultural deviation, ethnic discrimination, and political opportunity structure, etc.
