**Conflict Resolution**

All conflicts between Entities (including Warfare) are ideally resolved
through a resolution hierarchy. A full attempt by the parties involved
must be exhausted at the top level (tolerance), and only then proceeding
to the next lower level if that fails, and so on. Only the top 3 levels
of resolution can secure optimal outcomes.\\ 

Avoiding zero sum games, to the fullest extent possible, is the top priority for
preventing conflicts from spontaneously arising. Once a zero sum game arises, conflict is the natural dynamic that occurs. Warfare is the ultimate consequence of unmanaged conflict within any of the 3 domains of [[humansystems:socialpower|Social Power]].
