Coping with International Conflict incorporates the expertise of Roger Fisher, coauthor of a bestselling book on negotiation, and coauthors Andrea Kupfer Schneider, Elizabeth Borgwardt, and Brian Ganson. Based on the authors'' international consulting work, the book is designed to familiarize students with the theory and practice of conflict management as well as the newest negotiation techniques. The authors introduce basic components of conflict resolution theory - understanding partisan perceptions, analyzing the structure of negotiations, framing requests and demands - and provide exercises, charts, and checklists to highlight key points. Anecdotes, examples, and historic case studies of conflict areas such as the West Bank and Vietnam show theory in practice and demonstrate the use of conflict-resolution tools. As a test of students'' newly acquired negotiation skills, the authors set up a problem-solving process in which students select a real-world problem and write an "Action Memorandum" - a proposal to be sent to a real decisionmaker. Instructors and students alike will find this text to be an invaluable resource - it provides a variety of formats in which to learn and apply conflict-management theory, as well as a variety of opportunities to practise negotiation techniques in the fascinating arena of international conflict management.

This manual for international negotiations is an essential tool for successfully resolving conflict. While this book is mostly about international conflict, these ideas are relevant to other kinds of disputes, even in individual daily lives. The book lays out some tools for conflict analysis, and some practical applications of these tools that can help refine problem-solving skills. Instead of just asking why things work -- or don''t -- the authors ask how individuals can affect the way things work. They consider ways that people both inside and outside of gov''t. -- CEOs, scientists, lobbyists, academics, journalists, diplomats, university students -- might themselves influence international events.
