Ali Ramezani Oct 19, 2010:
I think most of the debate over this term has arises from the fact the asker has put مناظره in the description part. if it is a description of مناقشه we all know they are far different in meaning and if s/he has tried to define a category for term Monagheshe and advise it is for a Monazereh session, s/he is not clear enough. These two terms are so different.

agree Amanollah Zawari : dispute/conflict; a dispute is a form of conflict. when we say حل و فصل مناقشه اسرائیل و فلسطین we are talking about a kind of conflict that needs a resolution. The difference between conflict and dispute is the resolution phase. disputes require resoluti

Please notice that the asker has inserted two words and I suggested two for them! Thank you anyway! May I ask if your "debate" and "dispute" are different from mine?

conflict

an active disagreement between people with opposing opinions or principles:
Peer comment(s):

disagree aaryan : conflict could have a wider scope than مناقشه, for example it could imply active fighting, war, and any other physical (as well as logical/ideological) clash, whereas مناقشه is pretty much limited to words.

agree Amanollah Zawari : exactly, an example is حل و فصل مناقشه اسرائیل و فلسطین . dispute is a form of conflict and is less serious and requires a reolution so it depends how serious a discussion is and then you can choose between conflict and dispute.

dispute, quarrel

مناقشه is different than مناظره. The first one is "dispute" and has a negative connotation, but the second one is "debate" and has a positive connotation.

Peer comment(s):

disagree aaryan : this is not an accurate target term for مناقشه. For example what about when people say : "I'm struggling to understand your point". That's not مناقشه! من آنچه شرط بلاغ است با تو می‌گویم، تو خواه از سخنم پند گیر خواه ملال!

There are various applications for a single word in different contexts. Just look at my example. Thank you anyway, but I won't disagree with other suggestions if I have mine in the list too.
