Baseline writing - Wednesday August 5, 2020 "What is the role of conflict in peace?" Consider this question and write an approximately 250-
word response. American Literature is full of conflict because it chronicles the history of the
United States through independence from Britain, Native Americans and European settlers
sharing a vast land, and emerging ideas of leat creates a national identity, whether it's religious,
political or something else entirely (Not to mention the Civil War, World Wars I and II, and the
Civil Rights era of the 1960s.)
Feel free to write openly and without regard to how many paragraphs you should have, whether
there should be an introduction or conclusion, or even how well you understand the question. If it
helps to write from a historical viewpoint, do it, if it helps to write from a personal point of view
(including the use of "I,” do it.)

Peace and conflict studies is a social science field that identifies and analyzes violent and nonviolent behaviours as well as the structural mechanisms attending conflicts (including social conflicts), with a view towards understanding those processes which lead to a more desirable human condition.[1] A variation on this, peace studies (irenology), is an interdisciplinary effort aiming at the prevention, de-escalation, and solution of conflicts by peaceful means, thereby seeking "victory" for all parties involved in the conflict.

This social science is in contrast to military studies, which has as its aim on the efficient attainment of victory in conflicts, primarily by violent means to the satisfaction of one or more, but not all, parties involved. Disciplines involved may include philosophy, political science, geography, economics, psychology, sociology, international relations, history, anthropology, religious studies, and gender studies, as well as a variety of others. Relevant sub-disciplines of such fields, such as peace economics, may be regarded as belonging to peace and conflict studies also.

the answer should be the first one. "many people find his lyrics very moving."

it by far makes the most grammatical sense and is very objective, removing any first person from the original sentence and keeping with the sentence fluency.

i would have to say "a" or "d".
