Abstract
Social conflict is always understood as a social phenomenon that occurs in a plural society. The assumptions about conflict are always understood as a conflict of interest for limited resources. Conflict groups are formed as a continuation of the common interest in dealing with other groups. Such assumptions eliminate the location as a source of conflict. This paper wishes to show that to understand a conflict is not enough with social analysis but also needs location analysis. The location of the residence of a community participates in determining the pattern of life and behavior patterns that impact psychologically on the way a society sees the conflict. Specifically, the location taken for observation is Malifut District, North Halmahera district where the place had been a conflict between citizens. The author wants to show that the coastal area as a social environment Malifut community has a share in determining the occurrence of conflict. In this case, the authors will discuss the Malifut community’s understanding of the conflict and show the influence of the coastal environment on the understanding of it.
