The broken alliance from the natives between the French and the British caused a lot of Native Americans to distrust the whites. This impacts later upcoming wars between the Natives and other people. The distrust could have been prevented by the countries not competing for land that is occupied, or by not having the tribes get involved. Because of the land the French and British were fighting over, the Natives had to join sides. It would have been equitable if the countries listened to the Native’s opinion, or not fight over land that is already claimed by natives.

Money, or the equivalent thereof, has often caused divides amongst people everywhere. It has for all of history caused many rebellions and conflicts and will continue likely forever. For the working-class culture and politics surrounding the Industrial Revolution, these divides and conflicts were made very public as employer and employee clashed and complied throughout the nineteenth century America. Not only did this divide them this way, it divided the employees amongst separate views on employers and the value of their work as a whole. Throughout the article, Working-Class Culture and Politics in the Industrial Revolution: Sources of Loyalism and Rebellion, the authors discuss these bonds and divisions as they progress from early nineteenth
Humanity thrives on disobedience; this fact is obvious to anyone who observes our society. The increased popularity of dystopian fiction is the most recent example of media designed to channel the frustration that most people develop. History also shows how viscerally innate rebellion is to our lives, with many examples of rebellion having taken place.

During revolution, the point of view greatly affects how someone deals with conflict. If you are seeing a revolution from a powerful persons point of view it will be a lot different from experiencing it from meak individuals perspective. Having a calmer vs. a destructive point of view also changes how you respond to conflict. There are many factors to how conflict is dealt with, but point of view is a big one. People who have more “popularity” or power usually handle conflict differently than those who don't.
Rebellion Against Government Many words are associated with the word “rebellion.” These words may include “disobedience,” “anarchy,” “instability,” or “teenagers.” A word that should be included in that group is “justified.” Throughout history, people have often been deprived of the rights and freedoms that they deserve as citizens.
Karl Marx (1818-1883) considered himself not to be a sociologist but a political activist. However, many would disagree and in the view of Hughes (1986), he was ‘both – and a philosopher, historian, economist, and a political scientist as well.’ Much of the work of Marx was political and economic but his main focus was on class conflict and how this led to the rise of capitalism. While nowadays, when people hear the word “communism”, they think of the dictatorial rule of Stalin and the horrific stories of life in a communist state such as the Soviet Union, it is important not to accuse Marx of the deeds carried out in his name.
Conflict theory states that tensions and conflicts arise when resources, status, and power are unevenly distributed between groups in society and that these conflicts become the engine for social change. In this context, Marx’s conflict approach was developed in 19th century by Karl Marx (1818-83) .Marx argued wealth and power were unequally distributed in society and sought to explain how one minority group (1% ruling-class) in society maintained its dominance over the majority (working-class). Weber formulated a response to Marx’s theory. Weber saw that conflict didn’t overwhelmingly involve the economy, but that the state and economy together set up conditions for conflict. In this essay I will discuss the views of Conflict Theorists on
