Essay aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Politik - Politische Theorie und Ideengeschichte, Note: 1,7, Technische Fachhochschule Wildau, Veranstaltung: Negotiation and Mediation, Sprache: Deutsch, Anmerkungen: Excellent understanding of Harvard method: His own definitions were very clear, sometimes clearer than Fisher/Ury! The bulk of the essay - chapters 8-11 - were his own thoughts and application of theory and it would have been great to see more of this. I would like to encourage this student to do his master's thesis on this subject, so he could develop his own ideas further, I think this could be very interesting indeed. Excellent and very varied use of sources , Abstract: Middle East conflict or family dispute -where is the difference between private and political conflicts? If we can`t agree, it is surely annoying, but there is only a minor effect on other people. If superpowers, which represented by their diplomates, can`t agree on a disarmament treaty and even give up the negotiations, then the whole world population is affected by this conflict. What challenge must diplomates face and what abilities must they have as negotiator to solve problems between states? What consequences threaten if states can`t agree about territory? Antagonism and even armed conflicts threaten. What external help can be given to the litigant states? At this point mediation can be helpful. But this often indicates some special aspects by political level. The author gives insight into the "big mediation process between states" the so-called conference diplomacy. The author addresses these and other critical questions to give an insight into the elementary importance of providing peaceful negotiation management. He shows how a political negotiation must be prepared and what particular aspects are to considered. Above all he describes the four principles of the legendary Harvard Concept and applies these to state direction. The author shows where the concept reaches its limits.
