The war between Israel and Palestine presents an important moral paradox and tragedy of this age. This is because on one hand, several innocent lives are being lost and, on the other hand, it is a war that must be fought by all means and has proven that it cannot be fought morally. In this regard, therefore, it may be said that the war is collateral for a better future. That stems from the justification and necessity that Israel had in waging war against the Hamas. Israel acted on self-defense since Hamas continued bombing Israel’s territories and its ...

As it is known from history, the German Empire was among four Central Powers that fought the Entente during World War I. This war eventually led to a revolution in Germany that caused the demolition of the monarchy and installment of a democratic republican regime. The regime change that immediately followed the armistice of 11 November 1918 was in fact the main reason for a dissonance during peace talks. Entente powers, first of all the United Kingdom, desired to weaken Germany — then the most powerful state in continental Europe — permanently, especially in ...

The trade and investment relationship between Australia and China demolishes the theory of comparative advantage. According to Adam Smith and Ricardo, it makes sense for a country to focus on the production of goods and services it can do efficiently and purchase goods and services it produces less efficiently from other countries. When this theory is applied to the trade relationship between Australia, a rich country and China, a poor country, we arrive at a paradoxical outcome. The introduction of a free trade regime resulting in Australia-China trading relationship implies that Australian consumers will pay lower prices for imported ...

The last year was marked by the unexpected results of referendum held in the UK, where citizens had to decide whether the country should leave or stay in the European Union. Obviously, many experts had been skeptical and the results, with 52 % voted for the exit, were, with no doubt, shocking both for the EU and the entire world. The financial markets reacted immediately: the pound experienced the largest decrease during the entire period of the free-floating and major stock indexes, like FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 also fall considerably (Mackenzie & Platt, 2016 June 25). However, the reasons the ...

I recently engaged in a negotiation with a car salesman. I wanted to buy a new sedan car at a price of $6000. However, the car salesman offered the car I wanted at a price of $7500.

The advancement into globalization raises a controversial discussion about political and economic systems. By its nature, globalization implies setting a singular standard in various aspects of society, like politics, economics, technology, regulations, employment, etc. (Tregakis and Brewster, 2006). While convergence towards a common political and economic system is encouraged by structures such as European Union, which weakens trade barriers, the cultural patterns, the timing of industrialization, the nature of the dominant industries, the density of population or the disparity between rich and poor count as factors of divergence (Ashraf and Galor, 2007). As a result, two most common economic ...

Business Role-play: Negotiation

Business Role-play: Negotiation

Introduction

This negotiation took place between two different teams.

The Middle East history has a high number of full-scale, inter-state wars, such as the wars due to Arab-Israeli conflicts, Yemen war, and Iran-Iraq war. The Arab-Israel conflict has two elements to it, which are the Israeli-Palestinian element and the Israeli-Arab element. At the end of the 1800s, the Promised Land was set up so that the Jewish people can overcome the anti-Semitism and persecution and the migration of Jews to the Promised Land created issues. During WWI, the British convinced the Arab Leaders to revolt against Ottoman Empire as they support Germany, in return for which the British ...

FTOs (Foreign Terrorist Organizations) are foreign groups that the Secretary of State designates “in accordance with section 219 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA)” (“Chapter 6,” 2012). The designation of FTOs is crucial to fighting terrorism and helps to curtail support for terror activities. Accordingly, section 219 provides criteria for the legal designation of FTOs. First, an organization must be foreign-based in order to be labeled as an FTO. Secondly, the group must be involved in terrorist operations or maintain “the capability and intent to engage in terrorist activity or terrorism” (“Chapter 6,” 2012). Thirdly, the terror activity ...

Most people have an intuitive understanding of what a negotiation is. However, we will start from the establishing a scholar definition. A negotiation is an interaction between two or more parties, with the purpose of effecting an exchange that will leave both parties better off than if no negotiation had taken place. (Trask & DeGuire, 2013) Almost all negotiations (if not all) involve a series of offers and responses. A single offer and response is not a negotiation, it is simply a bargain or an unsuccessful exchange. Hence, in a negotiation both sides are committed enough to the idea of ...

Distributive bargaining mostly calls for a conflict-filled situation in which both parties look for their own advantages by often by hiding information. Therefore, the best tactic in negotiation is to maximize interaction and information sharing that in turn reduces hostility (Lewicki, Saunders, & Barry, 2014). Careful planning and execution of negotiation across the table and monitoring the reaction of the other party are important in distributive bargaining. Also, each step in the negotiation is to be carefully planned with the intention of gaining advantage over the other party. Setting target points throughout the negotiation, and focusing attention on reaching individual ...

Introduction

The current complex global business and social settings require various skills that ease the process of interactions. Negotiation is one of the areas where every individual (s) must focus especially because of the reality that disagreements will always emerge at varying levels of interactions. However, negotiations do not always apply when there are conflicts that may cause adverse consequences (Cohen, 2013). The reality is that negotiations apply even when a buyer and a seller decide on the best price for an item. The fact that men and women acts in varying capacities as either sales executives means that they ...

Whenever there rises a conflict, the contending sides may be attempted settling on one-sided choices on key issues due to the conviction that negotiating with the other side will be a deadlock.

Subsequent to being chosen the chairman of Chicago in February 2011, Rahm Emanuel, Obama's ...

A negotiation is nothing but a basic form of human interpersonal communication. A negotiation happens between two individuals when one person wants something from another person and vice-versa (Shell, 2006). An effective business negotiation aims at a win-win situation for both the parties sitting across the negotiating table. On the other hand, business negotiation in the context of relationships is more about understanding each other better than closing any deals. Interestingly, the dining table often becomes the negotiating table within relationships. More importantly, negotiating within relationships is very sensitive as it is likely to taint relationship between individuals. Because ...

Central Issue:

Why did Google and China choose to negotiate a partnership, bearing in mind what was at stake and the difference in their individual objectives? Google would risk going against one of its principles (do not be evil), whereas China would need to rethink its censorship policy.

Recommended Course of Action:

Business institutions and states should look at the best option (negotiation) to ensure that they fulfill their needs as much as possible. Therefore, both parties should be ready to make compromises, but ensure that they do not end up on the losing end.

Basis for Recommendation:

I chose the arbitration option because both Google and China ...

Negotiation is the most basic method of conflict resolution. It is backward and forward communication between the parties of the argument with the objective of trying to find a solution. It is a process of combining diverging viewpoints in order to arrive at an agreement. Negotiations can prevent or end a conflict while guaranteeing that both parties get at least fraction of what they desire. When both parties obtain major advantages, the negotiation is considered most successful. Nonetheless, any negotiation involves the risk of making a bad deal, and sometimes, a failed negotiation can worsen the existing conflict (Zartman ...

Introduction

The Chinese real estate market is currently experiencing a bubble in growth as investors rush to acquire real estate property both within and outside the country. As such, there is a need for effective communication platforms to facilitate the frequent talks and negotiations between China and other countries to take care of the increasing numbers of Chinese investors who want to purchase or invest in real estate properties overseas. In most cases, these negotiations crumble because of the lack of understanding as the buyer and the seller speak two different languages, hence a communication malfunction (Bogucki & Deckert, 2012). Therefore, ...

Introduction

Family is one of the interesting sociological phenomenon. Studied by many sociologists and psychologists, this concept persists to be one of the most dynamically evolving issues on the contemporary societal landscapes.

As far as a dogmatic conception of a family is concerned, under this term the one should understand a group of people, which is ...

Increasing temperatures, rising sea levels, erratic rainfall, deadly tsunamis, flooding, wildfires, heat waves, shrinking glaciers, and droughts are some visible highlights of a much debated global problem, i.e., the global warming. The problem is so severe that scientists, environmentalists, geographers, government officials, and various national and international tribunals huddle together time-to-time to embark on a sustainable solution to this issue. Nonetheless, the predicament persists putting everything (human beings, animals, birds, societies, environmental resources) in the soup. This paper discusses the impacts of global warming and the efficacy of solutions that are being implemented at national and global levels. Taking ...

Business ethics provide greater awareness about the important and valuable business activities that can help enhance performance (Malachowski, 2001). The observance of business ethics assist in clarifying the business goals within an organization and the conditions that are essential in achieving them. Ethics draw the line between what are ideal business practices and what are not. Among the benefits of practicing business ethics include wasting the organization's resources on attaining its objectives while avoiding what would naturally be wrong for a business practice. The observance of unethical conduct can hurt the organization itself and may result to negative consequences. ...

Film Review of ‘The last of the Mohicans’ (1992) This is a wonderful film that tells the story of a gradual, difficult and bloody birth of a new American society against the backdrop of the war for colonies between England and France.

Successful planning, construction, and completion of a large scale project like the one undertaken for completing the One World Trade Center is not easy since it requires a strategic focus on the construction plans in a realistic manner. Project leaders need to give external reviewers an opportunity to have an outside view of the whole project and suggest ways that can ensure completion within the stipulated time while avoiding deviations from the initial budget. The delays experienced during the construction of the Freedom Tower create the impression of how ineffective functional operations can lead to major changes in designs ...

Contractual relations are comprised out of two primary pillars as the offer and acceptance. In fact, the one party to the contractual relations should provide the other one with the offer. In case the second party accepts this offer this implies that these people have entered into the legal and binding relations. Given the merits of the case, one may see that Philip plays ...

Although the company plans to eventually offer a variety of communication media that these virtual teams can use, engineers are currently limited to email, telephone, fax machine, and an instant messaging program that was recently introduced.First, discuss media richness. ...

Abstract:

Strikes are one of the ways in which conflicts between employers and employees become known. Although they are rare, the effects of strikes are usually major and can affect the involved parties and public for a long time. Usually, strikes are usually a last resort measure when trying to solve conflicts and are considered the most damaging to employers. Employers will therefore try to avoid strikes as much as possible opting for alternative conflict resolution measures that are less damaging to their interests such as mediation and conciliation (Gennard, Judge, Tony, & Richard, 2016). This paper will discuss conflicts in ...
