Fighting Better
Connecting Theory and Practice in the Peace and Conflict Studies Field
Consolidating the legitimate use of force in the hands of the state is a vital first step in post-• conflict peacebuilding
Dialogue with the classic (to the 95th anniversary of the American sociologist of the conflict, Professor Louis Kriesberg)
Louis Kriesberg
Realizing Peace
"Realizing Peace combines three bodies of work that have not previously been integrated. First, it critically examines major episodes of U.S. government engagements in foreign conflicts since the beginning of the Cold War. This includes American engagements in struggles against adversaries, interventions among adversaries, and mediations between adversaries. Second, Realizing Peace also examines the efforts of non-governmental organizations and n…

Changing conflict asymmetries constructively
The complex and fluid nature of asymmetry is analyzed and then the sources of changes in conflict asymmetry are discussed. This analysis is then applied to particular conflicts that have followed different trajectories of asymmetry and conflict transformation. The trajectories include (1) transformation toward symmetry and equitable resolution (South Africa and the civil rights struggle in the US South) and (2) protracted failure to achieve appro…

The Relevance of Reconciliation Actions in the Breakdown of Israeli–Palestinian Negotiations, 2000
The breakdown of Israeli–Palestinian negotiations toward a final status agreement and the subsequent eruption of violence stunned many partisans of the conflict as well as intermediaries and observers. Although some partisans on each side had argued from the outset that successful negotiations were impossible, leaders of the Palestinians and the Israelis had negotiated directly for several years as if they were possible. The Israeli–Palestinian c…
Mediation and the Transformation of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
During the 1990s, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict underwent a profound transformation, which has proceeded slowly and sometimes with severe disruptions and retrogressions. This article examines the diverse contributions of different kinds of mediators to the transformation at various stages of the process. Particular attention is given to the Oslo negotiations, their forerunners, and subsequent negotiations. Comparisons are made regarding the di…
On Advancing Truth and Morality in Conflict Resolution
The editors of this special issue have articulated many dilemmas facing workers in the fields of conflict analysis and resolution. One way they characterize the difficulties, described by Arthur Koestler , is balancing between spiritually-directed, but socially ineffective activism like that of a Yogi or acting like a Commissar disregarding the means used in order to achieve desirable socioeconomic transformations. This matter is often argued . S…
Coordinating intermediary peace efforts
Multiple peace-making efforts by intermediaries can be a blessing or a curse, particularly in ethnic, religious, or other types of communal conflicts. The author outlines four general ways in which multiple interventions can hamper peacemaking, as well as the different types of intermediaries and de-escalating activities that can help efforts to achieve conflict resolution. Multiple intermediaries can work effectively either in sequence or contem…
International Conflict Resolution
Intractable conflicts
Many conflicts, especially intercommunal or interstate conflicts related to ethnic and religious differences, often sink into self‐perpetuating, mutually reinforcing, violent antagonisms. Such conflicts are a longstanding part of human history. There have been, however, interludes and areas where such conflicts have been absent. In the first decades after World War II, many intellectuals and political leaders regarded the ethnic and religious ide…
International Conflict Resolution
International Conflict Resolution
As the cold war comes to an end, world attention focuses even more on tensions in the Middle East. This timely and important book examines both the U.S.-USSR and Arab-Israeli conflicts since 1948 and uses the history of their negotiations--one successful, the other less so--to establish principles that will be helpful in resolving international conflicts now and in the future. Written by an authority on conflict resolution, the book is the first …
Conflict Resolution Applications to Peace Studies
The major areas of work in peace studies are outlined: critical demystifications, fiture peaceful conditions, and realized peacemaking processes. Then the major ideas of conflict resolution theory and practice are mapped out. The possible applications of conflict resolution ideas to peace studies are then examined in terms of the major stages of a conflict: its emergence, escalation, de‐escalation, and settlement. All this is done for each ofihe …

Formal and Quasi-Mediators in International Disputes
The distinction is made between mediating services provided to ameliorate international conflicts and who provides the services. The services may be provided by a person, group, or organization playing the role of a mediator, or by a quasi-mediator, a social entity not so designated, who may even be a member of one of the adversaries. The paper examines the kind of contribution social units providing mediating services, but playing different role…
Intractable conflicts and their transformation
Positive Inducements in Middle East Peace Efforts, 1949–1979
The focus of this article is on non‐coercive means (i.e. reward and persuasion) for pursuing international conflicts. The article uses case studies of six Middle East peace efforts to analyse the conditions which affect the utilisation and contribution of non‐coercive means. It looks at the factors that account for the limited use of non‐coercive means by adversaries in trying to induce the enemy to yield what was desired and at factors affecting…

Changes in Public Support for U.S. Military Spending
The proportion of Americans believing the United States is spending too little on national defense has varied considerably over the past four decades. In recent years; this proportion has increased from 12% in 1973 to 30% in 1978. Using data from the NORC General Social Surveys for 1973 through 1978, this article studies the correlates of opinions about defense spending and seeks to account for the trend toward increased support for greater arms …
The Bases of Occupational Prestige
Using survey data from a national sample of adults, an analysis was made of the relationship between individuals' prestige rating of dentists and several other perceived characteristics of dentists. Varying, but generally low, relationships were found with measures of the respondents' evaluation of the professional work, their perceptions of the scarcity of the required skills, their perceptions of the dentists' possession of valued characteristi…

Mothers in Poverty
Professor Kriesberg explores in this book the many myths about the poor, the welfare dependents, and the husbandless mothers. The evidence marshalled does not support the idea that people continue on welfare generation after generation, that the children of broken families have disrupted marriages themselves, that the poor seek out public housing and public assistance because they prefer such dependency, or that husbandless mothers all have lower…

The analysis is based upon data from a national study of heads of public health programs at the state and local levels. Consistent with Grusky's findings, heads of large public health and of large mental health departments at the State level tend to have shorter tenure than heads of small departments. Although the positions are filled by political appointment, the professional requirements are sufficiently important that the mechanisms discussed …
Occupational Controls Among Steel Distributors
A steel gray market, condemned by the government, flourished in the period following the outbreak of hositilities in Korea. The steel-distribution system was analyzed to understand why some distributors participated in the gray market and others did not. Distributors were typed according to their relationship to the distribution system; each type experienced different degrees of control from suppliers, customers, and colleagues; and the norms pre…

Carrots, Sticks, De-escalation
Various efforts to initiate and negotiate de-escalating agreements in the U.S.-Soviet and Arab-Israeli conflicts are examined. Theoretical approaches regarding the role of noncoercive and coercive inducements are compared and applied to the cases. Six generalizations are inferred from the analysis. First, noncoercive inducements are particularly useful in initiating de-escalation. Second, positive sanctions are more likely to be effective if prec…

Social Theory and the De-Escalation of International Conflict
Are we like the mothers and fathers at Jonestown, with the cyanide in place, rehearsing for suicide-murder? Daniel Ellsberg (1981) observes that the marchers protesting nuclear weapons are doing what the mothers and fathers in Jonestown waited too long to say 'No! Not our children! This is craziness; we won't be part of it.' He writes that 'It is none too soon to be saying this to the President/Prime Minister/Chairman Jim Jones's of the world; no…

Rearing Children for Educational Achievement in Fatherless Families
Married and husbandless mothers are compared to assess how certain concomitants of fatherless families may be related to attitudes and behaviors relevant for their children's educational achievement. The findings indicate that husbandless mothers are generally more, rather than less, concerned about the educational achievement of their children, compared to married mothers. Frequently lacking supportive environments, however, the conduct of husba…

The Retail Furrier
The separation of the artisan functions into specialized manufacturing, distributing, and retailing occupations has occurred in most trades. In studying a contemporary example of this process, different occupational values were found to be associated with different occupational situations. Retail furriers operating custom fur shops think of the secure furrier in self-oriented terms; those operating business fur shops think of the secure furrier i…
