One Land
"Presented historically and side-by-side, two professors, an Israeli Jew and a Palestinian Muslim, deliver the narratives of both sides- revealing different perspectives about the simmering conflict in a region desperately needing peaceful resolution. Colleagues who teach this eternal struggle to students in their classrooms, the authors have established a close friendship without denying their opposing viewpoints, and convictions. Where governments repeatedly fail, their mutual respect succeeds. Readers will be fascinated by the unique delivery of this complex subject matter through the authors' historical review coupled by their personal stories. History will come alive through these two men whose lives have been directly affected by this on-going Middle East conflict. Whether a novice, desiring the ABC's of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, or a seasoned student of history, this book promises deeper understanding of the controversy and why a peace agreement remains elusive." --Web site del libro.
Corporate Social Capital and Liability
What enables some organizations to routinely perform better than others? Conversely, what makes some firms consistently perform worse than their competitors? Within a single corporation, what enables some teams or individual firm members to outperform their counterparts? Through the concept of social capital, this book addresses these questions by studying the effects of relationship networks on the ability of corporate players (firms and their members) to attain their professional goals. The idea of social capital has become one of the premier approaches to studying networks in the context of organizations but the literature still lacks a conceptual paradigm that connects the various approa...
The Political Economy of Middle East Peace
The Political Economy of Middle East Peace looks at the political economy of the Middle Eastern peace process with a focus on the politics of trade.

Negotiating Arab-Israeli Peace, Second Edition
Thoroughly updated and expanded, this new edition of Negotiating Arab-Israeli Peace examines the history of recurrent efforts to resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict and identifies a pattern of negative negotiating behaviors that seem to repeatedly derail efforts to achieve peace. In a lively and accessible style, Laura Zittrain Eisenberg and Neil Caplan examine eight case studies of recent Arab-Israeli diplomatic encounters, from the Egyptian-Israeli peace of 1979 to the beginning of the Obama administration, in light of the historical record. By measuring contemporary diplomatic episodes against the pattern of counterproductive negotiating habits, this book makes possible a coherent comparison of over sixty years of Arab-Israeli negotiations and gives readers a framework with which to assess the relative strengths and weaknesses of peace-making attempts, past, present, and future.
