Book excerpt: This book explains how facilitative mediators, those without material leverage, contribute to progress in peace negotiations. While existing theories of mediation have offered suggestions about what a mediator should get parties to do to reach an agreement, the puzzle that has remained is: how does a mediator get parties to do what is prescribed? The book argues that a communication perspective is key to understanding facilitative mediation and that framing is the main mechanism by which facilitative mediation functions. Based on an empirical analysis of the United Nations mediation in El Salvador between 1990 and 1992, the work breaks new ground by uncovering three underlying mechanisms that explain how a mediator can get their framing adopted by the negotiating parties, thereby advancing the negotiations. The book offers a novel theory of facilitative mediation as framing and an innovative methodological approach that focuses on negotiation impasses to study the process of how negotiations progress. Practitioners will also appreciate the framework for thinking about when and how framing and reframing can be used to increase mediation’s effectiveness as a tool for ending armed conflict. This book will be of much interest to students of peace and conflict studies, negotiation, Latin American politics, and International Relations, as well as practitioners.

Book Synopsis Mediation Reframing: Peace From War by : David Hoicka

Download or read book Mediation Reframing: Peace From War written by David Hoicka. This book was released on 2024-07-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this guide, I have compiled over 470 English idioms and phrases showing the complex emotions, feelings, and aspirations connected to war and conflict, peace and happiness. To inspire creating solutions for finding peace, I provide multiple reframing examples for many of these expressions. My goal is to enable you, the reader, to recognize the pervasive presence of war-related imagery in our culture and society, and break through to peace and happiness. While war and conflict have been a part of life for many, I wish to show that we are not necessarily tied to our linguistic habits which influence our thoughts, feelings and actions. Through this book, I aim to shift the focus from war to peace. I present numerous perspectives on how to view these idioms and phrases which are based on war, instead in a new light based on peace. Thus, I highlight ways to embrace life, peace, nurture friendship, and cultivate hope. To ensure broad accessibility, this book is priced affordably. It is my sincere hope that by making this resource widely available, it can have a meaningful, positive impact. If this collection of transformative language reframings can save even one life or bring a measure of happiness to a single individual, I will feel a deep sense of fulfillment and happiness myself. I will be grateful to be able to make a difference through this work.

Book Synopsis Mediation Reframing by : David Hoicka

Download or read book Mediation Reframing written by David Hoicka. This book was released on 2024-04-05. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this guide, I've gathered over 700 English idioms and phrases that touch on the emotions, feelings, and dreams linked to death and the harsh realities of war and conflict. My goal is to let you, the reader, see for yourself the widespread and deep-rooted presence of death-related imagery in our culture and society. It's a truth that everyone's journey ends in death, but it's equally important to remember that we are all living right now. Through this work, I aim to shift the focus from death to life for all these expressions (sometimes offering more than one way to see an idiom or phrase differently). This way, I show numerous paths to view life instead of death, peace instead of war, friendship instead of conflict, and hope instead of despair. As you explore the idioms and the various new perspectives I present, it's enlightening to notice how many of these phrases slip into our everyday language and shape our view of the world, often without us even realizing it. By simply flipping through and reflecting on these sayings, you'll find dozens, if not hundreds, that when reinterpreted, can infuse life, hope, peace, and happiness into our conversations and thoughts. If this collection of emotional transformations can save even one life or bring happiness to a single person, it will fill me also with hope and happiness, knowing I've made a difference as the author. I wish you peace, happiness, good health and prosperity always. David Hoicka Singapore Mediation Solutions Singapore
