Positioning theory is the study of the nature, formation, influence and ways of change of local systems of rights and duties as shared assumptions about them influence small scale interactions. Evolving from linguistics origins, the theory concerns conventions of speech and action that are labile, contestable, and ephemeral. With this theory, researchers are able to examine the dynamic flow of social interaction as well as give equal weight to the role of discourse and the psychological resolution of conflict.This volume applies positioning theory in order to achieve a fuller and more in-depth understanding of conflict and its psychological resolution. The editors approach positioning from the micro (interpersonal) level all the way to the macro (intergroup and international) level.

From the reviews: "Positioning analysis generally examines the unfolding of conflicts through positions, story lines, and actions. ... Psychologists and others interested in both inductive analyses and processes on recognizing cycles of oppression and then transforming such into testable hypotheses at the individual and group level should read this book, test its theses, and then properly confirm or disconfirm its assertions. Those just interested in considering the distinct possibility that Moghaddam and company are correct should also read this book." (Jesus (Jess) Aros and Lapde So, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 53 (37), September, 2008)
