Abstract

The conflicts, existing in the society are inhomogeneous according to their origin as well as their course. Negative outcomes, caused by these conflicts, go beyond the boundaries of one country and form part of global politics. Neutralization of the conflicts, existing in the society is a long-term and extremely complex task and their ultimate neutralization is almost impossible. Consequently, all models, created for the purpose of resolution of such conflicts, are directed towards their maximum neutralization. On the basis of consideration of the examples of the number of countries is became clear that federalism may be used as effective way of resolution of the existing conflicts. Federative state is one of the best mechanisms for various minorities to develop their national and cultural originality. Federalism facilitates peaceful resolution of conflicts and, at the same time, preserves unity and territorial integrity of the state. This form of state organization can’t be viewed as universal way of resolution of problems. It may play positive role in the process of unification of Georgia and provide the required and significant positive outcomes for the country.
