Abstract

In this paper, a multidimensional microcosm model is presented to investigate the origin of conflicts in the Middle East. In this regard, by dividing the origin of conflicts into three parts, national, regional and extra-regional, they were identified. Also, the injustice and the lack of comprehensiveness of peace plans are the most important reasons for their failure. Investigations showed that the solutions to reduce tensions include the conclusion of Iran's nuclear negotiations, a confrontation with terrorism and ending the Palestinian crisis through the Arab peace plan.
