Preventive Negotiation

Report Error

Author: William Zartman (Editor)
Publication Date: December 2000
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
Description: 'Negotiation lies at the core of preventive diplomacy. This study is unusual in approaching preventive diplomacy by issue areas: it looks at the way in which preventive negotiation has been practiced, notes its characteristics, and then suggests how lessons can be transferred from one area to another, but only when particular conditions warrant such a transfer. The distinguished contributing authors treat eleven issues: boundary problems, territorial claims, ethnic conflict, divided states, state disintegration, cooperative disputes, trade wars, transboundary environmental disputes, global natural disasters, global security conflicts, and labor disputes. The editor's conclusion draws out general themes about the nature of preventive diplomacy.'

Start with NO...The Negotiating Tools that the Pros Don

Report Error

Author: Jim Camp
Publication Date: 2002
Publisher: Crown Publishing Group
Description: 'Start with No, by negotiation coach Jim Camp, is a tenaciously contrarian guide to the art and science of give-and-take that proposes a viable alternative for today's prevailing 'win-win' approach. Beginning with an inverse premise--that having the right to say 'no' and veto any agreement is actually the key to favorably concluding the various deals and transactions we face every day--Camp's procedure counters the common emotion-based urge to compromise ('a defeatist mind-set from the first handshake') with a series of less intuitive decision-oriented actions. 'My system teaches you how to control what you can control in a negotiation,' Camp writes. 'When you do so, you can and will succeed (understanding that success sometimes means walking away with a polite good-bye).' Emphasizing the importance of this underlying attitude, his method combines related steps like defining a mission, understanding the adversary, assessing fiscal and emotional investments, preparing an agenda, and tracking behavior. Each is fully explained, as are associated skills such as how to structure a question to elicit a truly helpful response.'
