Suburban Area Amenities

The question arises: Is the Ossetian-Ingush conflict ethnic in every sense of the word, if the essence of the dispute is solely in the Suburban Area Amenities? It is obvious that the basis of the Ossetian-Ingush conflict is a territorial dispute. The escalation of the conflict also was associated with complication determining the structure of the base: there was a choice - religious, ethnic or ideological justification. Feature of most of the Caucasian conflict is the prevalence of ethnic consolidation of confessional. There are two possible explanations - Soviet atheism and cultivation of ethnicity (rather than religious), as well as significant differences Caucasian Islam and Orthodoxy from the generally accepted standards. As shown many sociological studies, that ethnic identity is the Ossetians and the Ingush is the cause of socio-psychological and, as a consequence of political tensions. It is interesting to consider the place of conflict status of subjects - odnoporyadkovye or Variable. Formally, and the republic of North Ossetia and Ingushetia have equal status.

With regard to conflict transformation, here necessary to the scheme E. Pain-A. Popov. Dedicated variety of conflicts are the successive stages in the transformation of the Ossetian-Ingush conflict. If at first it was a "conflict of" - that is, open confrontation, then a "conflict of ideas" - a mutual accusations, bringing the "right" for each side of the justifications for violence and the current state of the problem - a conflict of stereotypes.
