Intractable conflicts are defined as being protracted, irreconcilable, violent, of zero sumnature, total, and central, and parties involved have an interest in their continuation; theyare demanding, stressful, painful, exhausting and costly both in human and material terms.As an adaptation to these conditions societies develop appropriate socio-psychological infrastructure, which includes collective memory, ethos of conflict and collective emotionalorientations. This infrastructure fulfills important functions, on both the individual and collective levels, including the important role of formation, maintenance and strengthening of a social identity that reflects this conflict. It is institutionalized, disseminated and eventually becomes the foundation for the development of culture of conflict. Its major themes appear in public discourse, cultural products, school books, and societal ceremonies. The emerged culture of conflict ends up serving as a major fueling factor to the continuationof the conflict and as a major obstacle to its peaceful resolution. The infrastructure servesas major socio-psychological barriers. These barriers stand as major obstacles to begin thenegotiation, to continue the negotiation, to achieve an agreement and later to engage in aprocess of reconciliation.
