Hans-Georg Gadamer's contribution to international conflict resolution is examined by applying his Truth and Method and Plato's Dialectical Ethics to conflict theory. In his view, understanding is important, because conflict resolution engages the parties to a conflict in a dialogue of interpreting meaning and values.
