Historical grievances influence political conflict by perpetuating resentment and divisions among groups. The legacy of past injustices, such as colonialism, discrimination, or war, can create lasting sentiments that fuel tensions and foster ongoing disputes. These grievances shape group identities, driving collective mobilization and resistance. In this context, acknowledging and addressing historical grievances is vital for conflict resolution, as failure to do so can perpetuate cycles of violence and impede efforts toward reconciliation and healing within societies.
