Energy field analyses shed light upon the various 'forces' influencing
the events of a conflict along with their effects and strength. They help
to assess the interests and influences that exist and how they may
succeed.
An energy field analysis provides information on the individual
possibilities the various parties to the conflict have, further
possibilities for mobilisation and the roles the public and press might
play.
The question posed here
is a follows: Who and what influences the conflict and in what manner and
how, and with what goal? What is important here is to visualise that a
specific, nameable conflict is concerned.

Individual
Work
The
scheme for the energy field analysis can be drafted in individual work. It
is also possible to write "who?", "what",
"how?", "what with?", "aim?" on a sheet of
paper and have it filled out appropriately.
Work in
Small Groups
The
questions concerned are discussed in small groups here, similar to the
manner in which individual work is carried out. Individual work can function
as an advance stage to working in small groups. |
