520 $aIn the Encyclopedia of Conflict Resolution, field specialists Heidi Burgess and Guy M. Burgess define conflict resolution broadly, covering both long-running, deep-rooted conflicts such as the abortion rights issue and short-term, negotiable disputes such as those between seller and consumer. But conflict arises in many contexts - personal, organizational, business, community, and international - all of which are covered here in depth.
520 8 $aIntended for a wide variety of uses and users, this unique resource describes the advantages and disadvantages of alternative approaches and explains common words and concepts, such as caucuses or zero-sum, that dispute-resolution consumers might hear. Readers who want to use this volume as a primer on the field can consult the longer entries, for example, those on mediation, arbitration, and negotiation.
520 8 $aThe broad bibliography and the valuable lists of key organizations, conferences, documents, and teaching programs in the appendixes will also answer many questions.
