STATE AND OBJECTIVES OF THE RESEARCH OF SPATIAL CONFLICT PROBLEMS

The article examines the nature of the occurrence of conflicts, analyzes the types of conflicts, analyzes the main causes of the occurrence and resolution of types of conflicts. The methods and legislative acts for the settlement of spatial conflicts are defined.
Social conflict, as a rule, means a clash of opposing interests, goals, positions, values or views of subjects of social interaction (individuals, social groups, classes). Social conflict is considered as an integral phenomenon of social life, which is an integral part of the development of society, which leads to social changes that must be managed. Theoretical recognition of the fact that conflict is an objectively inherent phenomenon for society, a necessary and natural feature of social life, requires a clear study of the causes of conflict and, most importantly, to proceed to the creation of a theory and "technique" for resolving conflicts of all types.
Legal conflict is defined as the struggle of legal subjects with opposite understanding and actions regarding the principles and norms of law in order to change their status and legal status. Among all legal conflicts, the main one is the legal conflict, which can be imagined as a contradiction between legal entities regarding the application, violation or interpretation of legal norms. Conflict resolution facilitates the understanding by each party to the conflict of the recognition of the existence of a conflict situation, and according to the opponent, the right to exist. Conflict resolution is impossible if one of the parties declares that the opposite party does not have the right to exist or that its position is devoid of any grounds. The parties to the conflict must adhere to certain rules that make it possible to preserve or maintain their relationship. These rules should ensure equal opportunities for each of the parties to the conflict, a certain balance in their relationship.
All controversial issues related to spatial conflicts in the field of architecture and urban planning must be resolved before the start of active actions on the part of investor-builders. It is necessary to involve citizens in urban planning, to discuss urban planning documentation, to place information in the public space, using all available, understandable and most effective information channels, which may include official websites of authorities, mass media (press, television, radio, Internet) , social media, texting, mailing, emailing, posting ads in public places, public exhibitions, public hearings, and responding to requests for information.
Involvement of communities in all stages of development, namely: the preparatory stage, the formation of technical tasks, project development, coordination and approval of the urban planning documentation project will significantly reduce or even avoid conflict situations in the urban space of human and community life and activity, and contributes to the prevention or absence of conflict the situation as such.
