SynopsisThoroughly updated and expanded, this new edition of Negotiating Arab-Israeli Peace examines the history of recurrent efforts to resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict and identifies a pattern of negative negotiating behaviors that seem to repeatedly derail efforts to achieve peace. In a lively and accessible style, Laura Zittrain Eisenberg and Neil Caplan examine eight case studies of recent Arab-Israeli diplomatic encounters, from the Egyptian-Israeli peace of 1979 to the beginning of the Obama administration, in light of the historical record. By measuring contemporary diplomatic episodes against the pattern of counterproductive negotiating habits, this book makes possible a coherent comparison of over sixty years of Arab-Israeli negotiations and gives readers a framework with which to assess the relative strengths and weaknesses of peace-making attempts, past, present, and future., In this breakthrough book, Cynthia Bisman and David Hardcastle present research methods as tools that social workers can use to improve clients. Rather than describing how research is done, they focus on how social work practitioners can use the rigors and methodologies of research in practice. The authors provide students with the skills they will need to evaluate the relevance and effectiveness of their practice--including the ability to articulate what they are doing, monitor their effectiveness, and decide whether to continue the applications with other clients.
