Book Description
Drawing on innovative research into sectarian-political struggle in Beirut, Mohamad Hafeda shows how boundaries in a divided city are much more than simple physical divisions and reveals the ways in which city dwellers both experience them and subvert them in unexpected ways. Through research based on interviews, documentation of various media representations such as maps, visual imagery and gallery installations, Negotiating Conflict in Lebanon exposes the methods through which sectarian narratives are constructed - arguing for the need to question, deconstruct and transform these constructions. Hafeda expands upon the definition of bordering practice by considering artistic research as a critical spatial practice which allows self-reflection and transformation of border positions. This study offers an alternative view to the mainstream narratives of what is meant by a border, and provides insights, methods and lessons that may be applied to other cities around the world affected by conflict and political-sectarian segregation.

Book Description
Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Politics - Region: Near East, Near Orient, grade: 1,4, Free University of Berlin (Center for Global Politics), course: International Negotiation, language: English, abstract: A serious political crisis almost led to another civil war in Lebanon. Thanks to Qatar’s mediating efforts, a workable solution to the problems was achieved, resulting in the Doha-Agreement. The talks were examined along various concepts of negotiations theory. Negotiations with Lebanese are a vivid evidence how complicated such a process might be. Last but not least, each bargaining situation is unique and doesn’t necessarily apply to any general theories, but rather to a good mix of all.

Book Description
"Mediation and Society is a theoretical and empirical inquiry into the nature of mediation and its relation to people. communities, and social systems. This comparative legal analysis is based on two comparative case studies - one Lebanese and the other American. It develops and illustrates a general theory of mediation and also addresses concrete issues of social and legal planning. The cross-cultural exploration specifically offers rich clues for planning and implementing more effective methods of dispute settlement appropriate to American culture. Mediation is viewed as an integral and necessary component of conflict management systems. The radically different political and personal implications of mediation and adjudication are illustrated, thus providing one step in the cumulative process necessary in reassessing dispute resolution and conflict management on local and national levels. Lawyers, social scientists, social workers, policy planners, judges, and citizens interested in more responsive legal institutions will find Mediation and Society useful in designing and implementing effective mediational alternatives to the courts" -- Jacket.

Book Description
This book examines the legacy of Lebanon’s civil war and how the population, and the youth in particular, are dealing with their national past. Drawing on extensive qualitative research and social observation, the author explores the efforts of those who wish to remember, so as not to repeat past mistakes, and those who wish to forget. In considering how the Lebanese youth are negotiating this collective memory, Larkin addresses issues of: Lebanese post-war amnesia and the gradual emergence of new memory discourses and public debates Lebanese nationalism and historical memory visual memory and mnemonic landscapes oral memory and post-war narratives war memory as an agent of ethnic conflict and a tool for reconciliation and peace-building. trans-generational trauma or postmemory. Shedding new light on trauma and the persistence of ethnic and religious hostility, this book offers a unique insight into Lebanon’s recurring communal tensions and a fresh perspective on the issue of war memory. As such, this is an essential addition to the existing literature on Lebanon and will be relevant for scholars of sociology, Middle East studies, anthropology, politics and history.

Book Description
This volume takes as its central organizing principle the thesis that national leaders are generally the key actors in international politics and conflict management. Therefore efforts to contain, manage, and reduce international conflicts through negotiation will be significantly enhanced through the availability of detailed information about the leading players. These essays evaluate this hypothesis through a detailed analysis of the major national leaders during the events of June-September 1982 in Lebanon, which began with the Israeli invasion of Lebanon and culminated in the establishment of an international peace-keeping force in West Beirut.

Book Description
This book contains a collection of essays by leading conflict resolution analysts and practitioners from across the globe. It aims to serve as a resource for policymakers, negotiators, and mediators who are striving to resolve intractable conflicts that account for widespread casualties and immeasurable suffering, and that challenge governments with acute policy and security dilemmas. "This volume promises to make an important contribution to the literature on diplomatic interventions in situations of protracted conflict. The case studies presented cover the array of issues that conflicting parties must consider before and during negotiations. The universality of many of the lessons learned suggests that policymakers and negotiators should heed the advice in this well-conceived volume." Daniel Kurtzer, Professor at Princeton University, former U.S. Ambassador to Egypt and Israel "Drawing on both experience and research from a large number of highly qualified contributors, this volume provides a rich guide to negotiations in conflict situations. Dealing with the many factors that may impede or aid resolution of conflict, the authors do not shy away from the possibility that a conflict may not be 'ripe' for resolution. The collection is especially welcome for addressing many of the seemingly implacable impediments to the successful conclusion of negotiations." Galia Golan, Professor Emerita at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya "An invaluable guide for practitioners and students of negotiations. One of its main conclusions, which I wholeheartedly endorse, is that negotiations can only succeed when there's urgency and the pain and gain that accompany it." Aaron David Miller, Middle East analyst, Vice President for New Initiatives at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars
