This volume brings together some of the most significant papers
on international conflict mediation by Professor Jacob Bercovitch,
one of the leading scholars in the field.
It has become common practice to note that mediation has been,
and remains, one of the most important structures of dealing with
and resolving social conflicts. Irrespective of the level of
political or social organization, of their location in time and
space, and of the political sophistication of a society, mediation
has always been there to help deal with conflicts. As a method of
conflict management, the practice of settling disputes through
intermediaries has had a rich history in all cultures, both Western
and non-Western. In some non-Western countries (especially in the
Middle East and China) mediation has been the most important and
enduring structure of conflict resolution. Jacob Bercovitch has
been at the forefront of developments in international conflict
mediation for more than 25 years, and is generally recognized as
one of the most important scholars in the field. His theoretical
and empirical analyses have come to define the parameters in the
study of mediation.
This volume will help scholars and practitioners trace the
history of the field, its position today and its future and will be
of much interest to all students of mediation, negotiation,
conflict management, international security and international
relations in general.
