Г) переговоры, достижение компомисса

Answer 2

The question is about the civilized way of resolving interethnic conflicts. The answer is:

The civilized way of resolving interethnic conflicts is G) negotiations, reaching a compromise. This means that the conflicting parties try to find a peaceful and mutually acceptable solution to their problems, respecting each other's rights and interests. Negotiations can be conducted directly by the parties or with the help of a third party, such as a mediator, an arbitrator, or an international organization. Negotiations can involve various methods, such as dialogue, consultation, mediation, conciliation, arbitration, or adjudication.

The other options are not civilized ways of resolving interethnic conflicts, but rather ways of aggravating or suppressing them. They are:

- A) forceful suppression: This means that one party uses violence or coercion to subdue or eliminate the other party, without regard for their rights or interests. Forceful suppression can lead to human rights violations, atrocities, genocide, or ethnic cleansing. Forceful suppression can also provoke resistance, violence, or terrorism from the suppressed party, creating a cycle of conflict and violence. - B) using the principle of "divide and rule": This means that one party tries to weaken or manipulate the other party by creating or exploiting divisions among them, such as ethnic, religious, linguistic, or regional differences. Divide and rule can be used to sow distrust, hatred, or rivalry among the other party, or to co-opt or bribe some of their members to collaborate with the dominant party. Divide and rule can undermine the unity, identity, or solidarity of the other party, making them more vulnerable or dependent on the dominant party. - C) introducing administrative borders between the conflicting peoples: This means that one party tries to separate or isolate the other party by creating or enforcing artificial boundaries between them, such as state borders, fences, walls, checkpoints, or zones. Administrative borders can be used to restrict or control the movement, communication, or interaction of the other party, or to create or maintain different legal, political, or economic systems for them. Administrative borders can also be used to divide or partition the territory, resources, or population of the other party, creating or exacerbating territorial disputes or grievances.
