“…Edmund S. Glenn, Robert H. Johnson, Paul R. Kimmel and Bryant Wedge tried to design a cognitive interaction model based on the Theory of Games to analyze culture in international conflicts. The main conclusion was that the use of "common sense" (defined as "the unconscious extrapolation to other cultures of assumptions generally accepted in the culture of the extrapolator" 15 ) did not assure a solution to the conflicts that may arise between the parties. Therefore, it was necessary to design a model which would make a distinction between conflicts of interest and conflicts of understanding so as to separate the conceptual frameworks where each of them was unfolding.…”

Abstract:The integration of cultural elements into the operational planning process is a complex task that requires practical and theroretical tools for a wide comprehension of the context to help solve the problem. This article shows the results of an empirical research which presents conflicting cultural factors as the starting point for the construction of mediating structures. The main result of our research is a partial cognitive structure, a system of ideas, represented in a template listing the basic conflictive factors at the tactical level that military could find in the development of their tasks. The template is also a valuable aid to design military training curricula and to be applied to any post-conflict stability operation in complex environments resulting from irregular or asymmetric conflicts.Keywords : military forces, cultural competence; conflicting cultural factors; peacekeeping, local actors, post-conflict stability operations.

“…Alternatively, when a dispute results from differences in ideology, identity, or worldview that shows divergent conceptualizations and characterizations of the issue at hand, it is a conflict of value (Druckman, Rozelle, and Zechmeister 1977;Druckman and Zechmeister 1973). Although different terms/typologies have been developed by different scholars (Glenn et al 1970;Brehmer and Hammond 1977), the notion that the nature of conflict plays an important role in determining the intensity and resolution of conflict is well documented in current literature (Druckman, Rozelle, and Zechmeister 1977;Druckman and Zechmeister 1973;Druckman and Greene 1995).…”

In the 1990s, Taiwan and China conducted over twenty rounds of negotiations through the semi-official Strait Exchange Foundation (SEF) and the Association for Relations across the Taiwan Strait (ARATS) concerning the following issues: notarized papers, registered mail, illegal immigration, fishing disputes, airplane hijacking, and post-1997 shipping links between Taiwan and Hong Kong. Regrouping these issues into rights, law-and-order, and shipping, this study analyzes the differences in the negotiation processes and outcomes through variations of value-interest alignments and their perceived impact on future policy objectives.

“…Within the wider cultural setting also, dierences in argumentation behaviour have been observed: for example, American negotiators have been found to rely more on argument by induction (e.g.`X and Y occurred in a number of cases and X is true so Y is true'); Soviet negotiators more on argument by deduction (e.g.`X occurred, and X implies Y, so Y is true'); French and Latin-American negotiators rely more on argument by analogy (Glenn et al, 1970); whereas Middle Eastern cultures value the use of hyperbole, dramatic non-verbal cues and elaborate emotional expressions during argumentation (Gudykunst and Ting-Toomey, 1988). Chinese negotiators tend to ask many more questions and to interrupt one another more frequently than American negotiators (Adler et al, 1992).…”

Although the association between management and argumentation has been a long-standing one, very little research has been undertaken into the organizational setting, institutionalization and use of argumentation. Argumentation is still considered to be undertaken between isolated individuals or within political communities. This paper aims to provide a ®rst attempt at an organizational theory of argumentation. It suggests that organizations institutionalize very specialized repertoires of arguments, which constrain what their members can say, and which are discourse resources which are subject to appropriation and manipulation by organization members to increase their power and in¯uence. One example of the importance of managerial control of argumentation is during organizational change, where speci®c argumentation subrepertoires are postulated to facilitate the transition between successive stages of change.
