Conflict Consortium Abstract

This article suggests that emotion and emotional communication are central to conflict interaction and that mediation can and should be informed by research and theory on emotion from the social sciences. The authors discuss the cognitive, expressive, and physiological aspects of emotion and their relevance to mediation practice.


 
 
I hope...that mankind will at length, as they call themselves reasonable creatures, have reason and sense enough to settle their differences without cutting throats; for in my opinion there never was a good war, or a bad peace. -- Benjamin Franklin
