The various types of conflicts in literature are:

person against self (the only internal conflict)

person against person

person against nature

person against society

person against God/fate/destiny/supernatural

person against technology

Different authorities will sometimes list these in slightly different forms, sometimes including some items in another category or even separating some items into their own category. Some authorities state there are only five or as many as seven different types of conflicts, but that is only because some of the multiple conflicts are included or excluded from one or another category. The number of categories is not as important as recognizing the types and sub-types.
