3 Negot. J. 2 (1987)

handle is hein.journals/nejo3 and id is 1 raw text is: Editorial Policy Negotiation Journal: On the Process of Dispute Settlement Negotiation Journal: On the Process ofDispute Settlement is guided by an explicit point of view. We believe that most disputes--be they interpersonal, intergroup, intergovernmental, or international---can be addressed through means other than coer- cion, withdrawal, or capitulation. Disputes, we believe, challenge protagonists, interested observers, and would-be intervenors to find new and creative ways of moving toward a settlement of differences. Moreover, quite independent of settlement, the very process of working toward wise agreements requires continued and vigorous attention It is the mission of Negotiation journal to encourage the search for and development of better techniques for dealing with differences through the give-and-take of negotiation. Although we are primarily interested in success stories, we believe that instances of failure to reach agreement or inability to find a wise solution are equally instructive. Such examples can stimulate creative efforts to explain and modify negotiation strategies in ways that advance the journal's mission. Effective negotiation practice, we believe, can be both influenced and informed by the diverse experiences of the negotiators themselves. Negotiationjournalis eclectic in three major respects. First, the journal is deliberate- ly multidisciplinary as is the composition of its International Advisory Board. We hope that Negotiation Journalwill be read and utilized by everyone interested in and committed to the practice and analysis of negotiation. Lawyers, diplomats, politicians, public- and private-sector policymakers, marriage counselors, labor negotiators, environmental medi- ators, businesspeople, scholars in such fields as political science, law, international rela- tions, economics, planning, social psychology, sociology mathematics, public policy in- dustrial and labor relations, business administration, organizational behavior-these are the sorts of people for whom Negotiation Journal is intended. At a second level, Negotiation Journalis eclectic in the variety of articles that it seeks to publish. We invite the participation of practitioners, theorists, researchers, advisers, and teachers. New and better ideas for the practice of coping with conflict, we believe, can be generated only through a free exchange of ideas and points of view. To this end, we will publish a variety of features: research reports, theoretical pieces, dialogues, reports of educational innovations, integrative book reviews, case histories, accounts of notable successes and notable misadventures, even polemics. We also encourage interested individuals to submit proposals for special issues of Negotiation Journal, to be devoted in their entirety to the exploration and elaboration of a specific topic. Third, NegotiationJournalis eclectic in its approach to dealing with differences. We believe that effective negotiation depends on an understanding of broader issues such as: the circumstances in which negotiation itself is an appropriate or possible procedure; the role in dispute settlement of various forms of third-party intervention; the application of negotiation to arenas in which this process has not previously been utilized, or in which other forms of dispute settlement have held sway Most generally our approach to negotiation is guided by the view that it is ultimately more important to pose wise questions than to obtain wise answers. To this end, we are interested in and responsive to new, varied, and unusual approaches to the negotiation process. 2 Editorial Policy
