The exploration of conflict in various global regions is traced back to prehistoric human nature, as suggested by diplomat Carl Coon. He argues that ingrained intergroup hostility has evolved through generations, with competition often leading to violence. Coon posits that we are entering a new phase of cultural evolution, akin to the transition from hunter-gatherer societies to agriculture. As the world becomes increasingly multicultural, the challenge lies in managing these conflicts while fostering cooperation for global priorities like environmental preservation and peace.
