In Huntington's view, intercivilizational conflict manifests itself in two forms: fault line conflicts and core state conflicts.

''[[Fault line war|Fault line conflicts]]'' are on a local level and occur between adjacent states belonging to different civilizations or within states that are home to populations from different civilizations.

''Core state conflicts'' are on a global level between the major states of different civilizations. Core state conflicts can arise out of fault line conflicts when core states become involved.<ref name="Huntington1">{{cite book

These conflicts may result from a number of causes, such as: relative influence or power (military or economic), discrimination against people from a different civilization, intervention to protect kinsmen in a different civilization, or different values and culture, particularly when one civilization attempts to impose its values on people of a different civilization.<ref name="Huntington1"/>
