Abstract

Mediation has been practiced for as long as two people have fought while a third tried to bring their fight to an end. And as the case studies in the present volume make clear, mediation in international relations has not only been practiced frequently, but has emerged as an important instrument of international diplomacy. Almost any individual, group, organization, or state — whether formally or informally engaged, invited or uninvited, more powerful or less powerful than the disputants themselves, engaged on a temporary or ongoing basis, etc. — can, indeed has, mediated an international conflict at one time or another.KeywordsUnited NationsRegional OrganizationSmall StateLarge StateInternational AffairThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
