Abstract

Blood Diamond was a movie that directed by Edward Zwick. The movie was talks about social conflict that occurred between rebels R.U.F (Revolutionary United Front) and the government. This conflict is caused by the unfair management of diamond natural resources by the government. Thus, the rebels dared to fight the government with the aim of taking over allnatural resources and controlling the existing areas. The rebels did everything possible including wounding, amputating, killing the residents of Sierra Leone. This study discussed how social conflicts could be portrayed in Blood Diamond movie and what kind of effects it had on the Sierra Leone society. The study used qualitative research methodology. The primary data was Blood Diamond Movie, and the secondary data was taken from books, journals, websites, magazines, newspapers and articles. The data were collected by watching the movie, identifying, classifying, and reducing the data into categorical order. Then, the data were analyzed using the theory about social conflicts. As a result, the study found that the unwise management of diamond natural resources from the government led to resistance by the R.U.F (Revolutionary United Front) rebels, thus this social conflict arose. Moreover, from the existence of these social conflicts, there are also eight negative effects that have occurred to Sierra Leone society. Here they are: many Sierra Leoneans were killed, lost of family members, lost of their homes, infrastructure damages, child soldiers, limited access to good quality education, amputations, and require refugees to safer places. Keywords: Social conflicts, Blood Diamond, Edward Zwick, R.U.F (Revolutioanry United Front), Sierra Leone.
