Negotiating under Fire : Preserving Peace Talks in the Face of Terror Attacks

Negotiating Under Fire explores how real-time and severe security crises between two nations impact diplomatic initiatives between those countries. Using the Baruch Goldstein Hebron massacre of 1994, the Nachshon Wachsman kidnapping and execution of 1994, and the nine-day string of suicide bus bombings carried out in Israel in March 1996 as case studies to examine the impact of terrorism on negotiations over Oslo II (the Gaza-Jericho Agreement), the book concludes that insurgents or those hostile to peace talks can and do undermine negotiations.Levitt, Matthew Adam is the author of 'Negotiating under Fire : Preserving Peace Talks in the Face of Terror Attacks', published 2008 under ISBN 9780742551633 and ISBN 0742551636.
