Research Abstract |
This study analyzed and described political social scientific discourse in which violent conflicts of pastoral societies in northeastern Uganda are culturalized. It critically elucidates the fact that low intensity conflicts have been increased by self-contained, structural-functionalistic, and closed conception of group, which originated during the colonial period, and intervention justified by conflict-of-interest model on which different groups confront each other for scarce resources. it revealed logic and practicality of social symbiosis among the life-world of pastoral peoples, which local communities have originally sophisticated with reference to coping methods of chronic collective violence among pastoral people, and social process in which they are created and used.
