The definition of this kind of conflict is when a protagonist has a strong belief against

the majority of the community or surroundings and decides to act on it. Since this
type of conflict is between a character and an outside group, it is classified as
an external conflict. This character usually goes against the grain.
There are specific issues that can be used when creating a man versus society
conflict. Racism, segregation, religious beliefs, environmental issues, being wrongly
accused of something, and being ousted from society are all examples of how
someone can come into conflict with his or her community. One against many is also
a good way to look at it.

Huckleberry finn conflict

The theme of Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn is that the ideas of society can greatly influence
the individual, and sometimes the individual must break off from the accepted values of society
to determine the ultimate truth for himself. In Huckleberry Finn's world, society has corrupted
justice and morality to fit the needs of the people of the nation at that time. Basically,
Americans were justifying slavery, through whatever social or religious ways that they deemed
necessary during this time.

The conflict between society and Huckleberry Finn results from Huck's non-conformist attitude.
This attitude is a result of his separation from society at an early age.
Huckleberry Finn recognizes Jim as a human being, but is fighting the beliefs bestowed upon
him by a society that believes slaves should not be free. However, it is important to realize that
although Huckleberry Finn's decisions create the conflict between society and himself (and
that this conflict forms the theme of the novel), Huck is oblivious to the justice, the
righteousness, and even the heroism of his own actions, they are simply in accordance with
his own conscience.
