Eric Min
In Words of War, Eric Min pulls back the curtain on when, why, and how belligerents negotiate while fighting.
Of all interstate conflicts across the last two centuries, two-thirds have ended through negotiated agreement. Wartime diplomacy is thus commonly seen as a costless and mechanical process solely designed to end fighting. But as Min argues, wartime negotiations are not just peacemaking tools. They are in fact a highly strategic activity that can also help states manage, fight, and potentially win wars.
Two factors determine whether and how belligerents will negotiate: the amount of pressure that outside parties can place on belligerents them to engage in diplomacy, and information obtained from fighting on the battlefield.
Combining statistical and computational text analyses with qualitative case studies ranging from the War of the Roman Republic to the Korean War, Min shows that negotiations are more likely to occur with strong external pressures. Words of War compels us to rethink the assumption that it "cannot hurt" to promote diplomacy during war.
The book is published by Cornell University Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.
