CONFLICT REZOLUTION MECHANIZM IN DEFENS TECH KEY TRENDS AND CHALLENGES

Abstract

The article examines the key mechanisms for conflict resolution in the defense technology sector (defense tech), which is of strategic importance for national and global security. The rapid development of defense technologies, including artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and other innovations, creates new opportunities but also significant challenges, such as conflicts between government agencies, private companies, and international organizations. The study aims to analyze existing mechanisms for resolving conflicts in defense tech, identify major trends and challenges, and propose recommendations for improving regulatory and ethical approaches. Systematic analysis, comparative methods, and legal framework reviews were employed to achieve this goal. The findings indicate that the primary mechanisms for conflict resolution in defense tech include regulatory tools, international cooperation, mediation, and innovative technological platforms. Regulatory tools provide a legal framework for the use of cutting-edge technologies, while international cooperation facilitates dialogue between states to prevent conflict escalation. Innovative approaches, such as the use of artificial intelligence for risk monitoring and blockchain technologies for contract transparency, hold significant potential for reducing conflicts. The analysis also highlights key trends in the defense tech sector: strengthening ethical standards and social responsibility, integrating advanced technologies, and enhancing international regulations. However, significant challenges remain, including technological inequality, ethical dilemmas, restricted access to confidential data, and national security concerns. Rapid technological advancements exacerbate disparities in access to defense technologies between countries, potentially leading to new international conflicts. Future research could focus on developing regulatory frameworks that address the dynamic growth of artificial intelligence, automated systems, and big data analytics. A critical area of study is the exploration of collaboration models between public and private entities, as well as the implementation of ethical standards to minimize conflicts in the defense technology sector. Keywords: defense technology, conflict resolution, artificial intelligence, mediation, ethical standards, national security, regulatory mechanisms, technological inequality.
