Abstract
This paper reviews the treatment of conflict in the social work practice with groups literature, examines small group research that has focused on conflict, and identifies five practice principles for conflict management. Conflict in small groups is understood as normal and to be expected. However, unattended it may be extremely dysfunctional to individuals in the group and to group process and progress. The principles of conflict management are proposed as a means of maximizing the functional potential of conflict in the group.
