In praise of conflict
Ted Talk

这里说的矛盾不是制造矛盾，而是对存在的矛盾应该处于正面面对，而不是表现出一种妥协的态度，毕竟妥协并不是一种最有效的方法，在某种情况下。而这演讲，不仅仅讲了公共的因素，个人的因素，还有两者交叉的中心的混合因素所造成的影响。通过这些影响还有作为，来减少矛盾。公共因素注重对社会的影响力，所以本质的根据就是找到共同的目标或者口味, 也就是common good. 而私人因素，这是个人的追求。两种因素的交叉则是最为关注的，思考角度从个人的利益出发，由各个个人的利益组成的一个整体，然后再从这个整体出发，照顾到每一个人的利益，尽量顾及到特殊的群体。这种做法不仅仅可以最有效率的化解矛盾，也可以保持长期的稳定关系。
