    TYPES OF ISSUES -
    1. Social Issue – A situation that has a negative impact on the
    personal or social lives of individuals, as well as the well-
    being of communities or larger groups within a society, and
    about which there is usually public disagreement as to its
    nature, causes, or solution. Eg of Social Issue – Poverty,
    Inequality, Crime, Lack of Access to HealthCare,
    Unemployment, Inadequate Housing, Enviromental
    Degradation, Lack of Access to Education, Corruption
    2. Moral Issue – It is one that must be resolved not only by
    considering technical aspects but also by keeping moral
    values in mind. To be more specific, think about the
    definition in general. Eg of Moral Issue – Graft, Bribery,
    Nepotism, Patronage are all examples of corruption. Abuse
    of children, employees, and married couples ( wife &
    husband )
    3. Economic Issue – Refers to any such problem in the
    economy that is concerned with the production of goods and
    services to satisfy the unlimited wants of the economy
    through the utilization of scarce resources. Eg of Economic
    Issue ; Budget allocation & Human Resource Allocation

    CONFLICT –
    Is a literary device that depicts a struggle between two opposing
    forces, conflict essential in any story because it creates tension
    and propels the plot forward. It frequently used in narratives to
    reveal a deeper meaning while highlighting characters’
    motivations, values and flaws.

    • Character Vs Self – This is an internal conflict, which means


    that the opposition the character faces is internal. This can
    what the moral or ‘right’ choice is, as well as mental health
    issues. All other types of conflict are external, which means
    that a character encounters an outside force that causes
    conflict.
    • Character Vs Character – This is a common type of
    conflict in which one character’s needs or desires clash
    with those of another.
    • Character Vs Nature – In a nature conflict, a character
    is pitted against nature. This can refer to the weather
    nature, or a natural disaster.
    • Character Vs Supernatural – By putting characters
    against supernatural phenomena such as ghosts, gods,
    or monsters, the stakes of a conflict are raised by
    creating an unequal playing field
    • Character Vs Technology – In this instance, a character
    is at odds with technology, the character is usually
    faced with a battle against technology that has become
    too powerful, or being used by another force or evil.
    • Character Vs Society – A conflict occurs in literature
    when the protagonist is pitted against society, the
    government, or a cultural tradition or societal norm of
    some kind. Characters may be motivated to act against
    their society by a desire for happiness, freedom, justice,
    or love, as well as a need to survive.
