"Rethinking Negotiation Teaching" Project


This ambitious project seeks to redesign how negotiation is taught worldwide. Headed by Christopher Honeyman, James Coben, Sharon Press and Giuseppe De Palo, the project is administered by the Dispute Resolution Institute at Hamline University Law School. The invited participants include key scholars and practitioners from approximately 20 countries and a variety of fields. The project's first and second meetings (Rome, 2008 and Istanbul, 2009) resulted in the publications described below. Note: a generous grant from the JAMS Foundation has permitted the organizers to publish the full text of both books without charge in PDF form. The first book in the series, Rethinking Negotiation Teaching, is also now available in Chinese, Arabic and Turkish translations.



Venturing Beyond the Classroom

Chapter 1, Introduction

Edited by Christopher Honeyman, James Coben and Giuseppe De Palo and with 37 contributing authors, Venturing Beyond the Classroom puts into practice a series of experiments described in the project's previous book, below. It also offers a warts-and-all analysis of how the initial experiments didn't always work --- and what should be done next to improve these new teaching techniques and topics.

The book is available through Amazon.com (directly via this link, with free shipping.) PDF copies of all chapters are without charge.

 





Rethinking Negotiation Teaching

Chapter 1, Introduction

Edited by Christopher Honeyman, James Coben and Giuseppe De Palo and with dozens of contributing authors, Rethinking Negotiation Teaching is one of two major products from the first year of the Rethinking Negotiation Teaching Initiative. Honeyman, Coben and De Palo are also guest editors of the April 2009 edition of Harvard's Negotiation Journal, a special issue with nine articles drawn from this initiative.

The book is available through Amazon.com (directly via this link, with free shipping) and from booksellers everywhere. PDF copies of all chapters are without charge.

The project is a consequence (see background paper) of discoveries made in the course of putting together The Negotiator's Fieldbook. The Fieldbook is the most ambitious effort ever undertaken to capture the full range of new knowledge about negotiation. Buy the Negotiator's Fieldbook from Amazon, with free shipping. In turn the Fieldbook, published 2006 by the American Bar Association, was the culmination of Chris Honeyman's Broad Field project.


Also: a special issue of Negotiation Journal, guest-edited by Chris Honeyman, James Coben and Giuseppe De Palo.
