Summary:
This paper intends to address contradictory discourses on homeowners’ associations by first addressing the role of conflict in organizations and then addressing the role of conflict in community associations. The first part of the paper will contextualize the role of conflict in organizational life. The second part will report the preliminary findings of an original survey measuring the scope and scale of conflict in Greater-Boston area community associations.
