Overview:
The meaning of conflict and the possibility of reconciliation have been central questions since ancient Greek philosophy. Heraclitus famously argues that the conflict of opposites is the permanent condition of all beings. On the contrary, Plato contends that it is possible to envision harmony among conflicting parties, including various faculties of human beings and different classes in a given society. In modern times, Hegel believes that the Geist represents the reconciliatory process of struggles in history, while Marx emphasizes the opposite, asserting that struggles are essential in shaping historical development. Philosophers throughout the ages have never been free of disputes in presenting their conflicting views about conflict and reconciliation.
Phenomenology upholds the principle of "returning to the things themselves" when constructing its theories. The critical inquiry lies in determining the types of conflicts that can be analyzed and understanding the relationships among them, such as internal conflicts within an individual, inter-human conflicts, international conflicts, conflicts of interests or ideals, conflicts manifesting as a divergence of the ontological status of beings, and more. Equally significant is the exploration of the various forms of reconciliation that can be envisaged, including harmony within one's soul, harmony among human beings, compromise between national interests, reconciliation as a pathway to peaceful coexistence, and reconciliation at a deeper, more profound level. Without establishing any metaphysical presuppositions, Husserl pays attention to analyzing the ways in which the meaning of intersubjectivity arises in our lived experiences, where conflicts and reconciliation may take place. Sartre is interested in analyzing the conflicts of human beings rooted in their being as "for-itself" and as social beings, i.e., belonging to groups. Patočka characterizes the twentieth century as the century of war where military conflicts cannot help but go unbridled. By focusing on the issues of conflict and reconciliation, it becomes evident that phenomenology inherently encompasses the importance of ontological, ethical, and political reflections. In the 21st century, where global conflicts re-emerge in novel forms, it is imperative to reconsider the meaning of conflict and reconciliation in the shadow of uncertainty. We invite researchers from Asia and other parts of the world to contribute to thinking "Conflicts and Reconciliation” from perspectives of phenomenology and human sciences.

Themes might include:
- Analyzing conflicts and reconciliation from ontological, ethical, and political perspectives as elucidated by the central figures of phenomenology.
- Comparing phenomenological perspectives with other viewpoints in the history of philosophy.
- Extending phenomenological reflection to other disciplines within the human sciences, such as psychopathology, psychotherapy, sociology and political science.
- Evaluating phenomenological analyses from an intercultural perspective.
