Riassunto

This volume contains a selection of the most notable contributions delivered at the research conference "Industrial Relations and Conflict Management: Different Ways of Managing Conflict," which was hosted by the Nether­ lands School of Business in July 1980. Held at Nijenrode Castle, the confer­ ence brought together an international gathering of thirty-five of the most distinguished scholars in these fields to present research papers and to en­ gage in round-table discussions. One of the principal aims of the conference was to explore cross-links and differences between the areas of conflict management and industrial relations in an international context. The book opens with a chapter by George Strauss, who provides an in­ troduction to and an overall view of the subject matter covered. The chap­ ters that follow in Part I deal with differing conflict conditions and defini­ tions and their implications for managing conflict. The manifestations of conflict and different modes of conflict management are the subject of the chapters in Part II. In Part III, three empirical studies of conflict are dis­ cussed. Part IV is concerned with comparative industrial relations, while value issues and conflict are the focus of Part V. Finally, in the Epilogue the participant feedback regarding the conference is reviewed.
