CONT

Lorsque le désir de vengeance se manifeste, c'est le signe certain du fait que la compétition a déjà fait au moins une victime et que la relation est gravement compromise. La recherche de solutions promet alors d'être beaucoup plus difficile et périlleuse que s'il ne s'agissait que d'un simple conflit interpersonnel suscité par les divergences entre les intérêts de deux adversaires.
