OF INTERNATIONAL CONFLICT
Herbert C. Kelman
Social-psychological concepts and findings have entered the mainstream of
theory and research in international relations. Explorations of the social-
peychotogical dimensions of international politics go back at least to the early
1930s (see Kelman 1965 fora review of the earlier history and a series of con-
tributed chapters on various topics in the field; see also Kelman and Bloom
1973; Kelman 1991; Tetlock 1998 for reviews of later developments). Research
‘on foreign policy decision making and the cognitive, group, and oxganiza-
tional factors that help to shape it (see Holsti 1989; Fischhoff 1991; Farnham.
1992), negotiation and bargaining (see Druckman ard Hopmann 1989; Rubin,
Pruitt, and Kim 1994), enemy images (see Holt and Silverstein 1989), public
‘opinion in the foreign policy process (see Russett 1989), deterrence and other
forms of influence in international politics (see Stein 1991), and reconcilia-
tion (see Bar-Siman-Tov 2004) draws extensively on social-psychological
research and theory.
Paralleling these theoretical and empirical developments, a new form of
Practice of international conflict resolution, anchored in social-psychological
principles, has evolved over the past forty years. The approach derives from
the pioneering work of John Burton (1969, 1979, 1984). My colleagues and I
have used the term ieractve problem solving to describe the approach (Kelman
1986, 1992a, 1996; Rouhana and Kelman 1994). Ronald Fisher and other
scholars in the fleld have referred to it as chid-parey consultation (e.g, Fisher
1983, 1989) and more recently as interactive conflict resolution (Fisher 1997).
