"The past several years have witnessed a dramatic increase in the study and practice of negotiation. Through our association with Negotiation Journal and the Program on Negotiation at Harvard Law School, we have been privileged to witness, and be part of, this growth process. The collection of edited articles presented here, though by no means exhaustive, reflects the increasing interest in the field and, we hope, serves as a useful 'source book' on critical issues in contemporary negotiation scholarship and practice."--Preface

In this new, updated edition of Advanced Negotiation and Mediation Theory and Practice, Paul Zwier and Thomas Guernsey present a strategic planning and integrated systematic approach to negotiation, which recognizes that both adversarial and problem-solving strategies have distinct advantages and that lawyers need to combine styles and strategies to achieve the best results for their clients. Zwier and Guernsey provide attorneys with an outline to plan and implement effective negotiation techniques, using up-to-date situations throughout the book to demonstrate how understanding negotiation theory and practice can help them partner with their clients to make better strategic use of negotiation. The authors break down the counseling process into stages and show what information the client needs to make an informed decision. They then suggest and give examples of the techniques and skills that might be used to implement that decision in a negotiation and or mediation setting.

This successor volume to Understanding Negotiation is a valuable resource for understanding the dynamics, strategies, and ethics of negotiating. This revised and updated edition includes two entirely new chapters on topics that are seldom covered in basic negotiation texts--gender and culture in negotiation and multiparty negotiation. The book offers law students the tools they need to develop effective legal negotiating skills. In addition to the foundational topics of distributive and integrative bargaining, Professor Nelken addresses the psychology of the negotiating process and, of particular importance to future attorneys, ethical issues and the lawyer-client relationship. Each chapter begins with introductory material from the author to provide a framework for understanding the readings that follow. The readings are a broad selection of the best scholarship in the area, including both classic texts and excellent research from other disciplines that is generally unfamiliar to lawyers.

Professor Rojot's work links the theory of negotiation to its more practical aspects and bridges the gap between theoretical work and 'how to' manuals. The theoretical analysis is rooted in the field of sociology in general and in the strategic analysis of organisations in particular. This sets it apart from most treatises on negotiation which tend to be based on social-psychology, political science or economics.

Genre: History
ISBN: 1134086911

This book presents a series of essays by I. William Zartman outlining the evolution of the key concepts required for the study of negotiation and conflict management, such as formula, ripeness, pre-negotiation, mediation, power, process, intractability, escalation, and order. Responding to a lack of useful conceptualization for the analysis of international negotiation, Zartman has developed an analytical framework and specific concepts that can serve as a basis for both study and practice. Negotiation is analyzed as a process, and is linked to other major themes in political science such as decision, structure, justice and order. This analysis is then applied to negotiations to manage particular types of conflicts and cooperation, including ethnic conflicts, civil wars and regime-building. It also develops typologies and strategies of mediation, dealing with such aspects as leverage, bias, interest, and roles. Written by the leading exponent of negotiation and mediation, Negotiation and Conflict Management will be of great interest to all students of negotiation, mediation and conflict studies in general.
