ABSTRACT

Two things are inevitable in human existence, the subsistence of man in a social milieu and the multifaceted perception of occurrences in nature. The approach of managing these inevitabilities go a long way in determining the stability or otherwise of human society. Mismanagement of these inevitabilities is the basis of social unrest which unfortunately pervades every facet of human endeavour. This problem has also eaten deep into the fabrics of different systems instituted by man to make his living better. Rather than collaborate to bring about the best for man, these systems antagonize each other thereby making life more difficult. This paper argues that the primary and root cause of social unrest in societies is the problem of being exemplified in the misrepresentations of Being. Through a phenomenological approach the paper avers that the solution to this situation is to go back to the basis and resolve the problem of being through the accommodation of non–being. This can be achieved by appreciating the multi-perspectival expression of Being in nature thereby leading to amicable management and easy resolution of conflicts between and within social systems and people.
