Culture and Negotiation in Militarized Interstate Disputes
The paper describes the research design and presents some preliminary findings from an extended investigation of the role played by cultural similarities and differences between participants in the evolution of militarized interstate disputes, particularly in the parties' uses of negotiation and negotiation outcomes. The authors employ three typologies of social culture, which are based on the works of Huntington, regional geographers, and the intercultural communication work of Hall and Hofstede, as well as indicators of shared democracy drawn from POLITY IV data. Negotiation descriptors have been generated from a random sample of 294 MIDs during the period between 1945 and 1992. The findings support the proposition that cultural similarities reduce the likelihood of MID involvement, increase the use of negotiation in MIDs, and improve the chances that negotiations will produce successful outcomes.
