By virtue of such approach of V.I. Andreev and determines:

• conflict as a process of the sharp intensifying of contradiction and fight of participants is in the decision of problem, having meaningfulness for each of his participants.

Antagonistic character of conflict can be considered the characteristic sign of other models;

• a conflict is a conflict of opposite interests, opinions and aspirations;

• a conflict is social is an attempt of achievement of reward by a submission, imposing of the will, delete or even elimination of opponent, aspiring to attain a that reward. From a competition a conflict differs a clear orientation, presence of incidents, hard conduct of fight;

• a conflict is the opened opposition as a result of mutually exclusive interests and positions.

The supporters of the first approaches describe a conflict as negative. They divide conflicts into destructive and structural (many of them consider that structural is rareness, that a conflict is almost always bad, and, at least, worse than the solved by mutual agreement coexistence). Most works on technology of work in a conflict within the framework of such approach give recommendations on manipulation, which name a « conflict», «management a conflict situation». The primary objective of such management is liquidation of with a maximal benefit on your own.

A conflict is the system of relations..., process of development of co-operation..., set distinctions of subjects, participating in him (on interests, values, activity).

The supporters of the second approaches consider a conflict the natural condition of existence of interactive people, instrument of development of organization, any association, though having destructive consequences, but on the whole and on the protracted interval not so destructive, as a consequence of liquidation of conflicts, their informative and social blockade. Similar approach was always in a mathematical game theory (adopted so by virtue of historical reasons of arising out of attempts of research of games, it is the theory of mathematical models of acceptance of optimum decisions in the conditions of conflicts, and both term a «game» and «conflict» designate a the same concept and in fact are «mathematical synonyms»). He is characteristic and for modern sociology of conflict (A.G. Zdravomyslov, E.I. Stepanov, T.S. Sulimova), social psychology (A.Ya. Antsupov, N.V. Grishina, A.I. Dontsov, Yu.m. Beetles, L.A. Petrovskaya), theory of organizational development and, certainly, general theory of conflict. At such approach all transferred disciplines fully correlate between itself (basic determinations, postulates), that allows conclusions in one to apply for theoretical constructions in other, saving a scientific strictness, plenitude and uncontradiction. Korreliruemost' is especially important, if to take into account that a game theory actively developed as early as XVIII and XIX вв. before most sciences, engaged in today conflicts (and its origin as mathematical discipline take besides to the letter of Paskalya to Farm from July, 29, 1654, which it is accepted to consider beginning and theories of chances), but here determination of conflict on a game theory enters into contradiction with all theoretical models of the first approaches.
