How can an escalation of conflict lead to negotiation? In this systematic study, Zartman and Faure bring together European and American scholars to examine and define the point where the two concepts and practices of escalation and negotiation meet. Political scientists, sociologists, social psychologists, and war-making and peace-making strategists, among others, examine the various forms escalation can take, and relate them to the conceptual advances in the analysis of negotiation. This book is directly relevant to the many ongoing conflicts and conflict patterns in the world today.
