There is no shortage of disputes.
A mediator is an impartial outsider who tries to aid the negotiators in their quest to find a compromise agreement.
Disputants often fare poorly when they each act greedily and deceptively.
Final-offer arbitration should have great appeal for the daring (the risk seekers) who play against the timid (the risk avoiders).
the mediation of internal conflicts can be resolved by linkages with other problems.
The party that negotiates in haste is often at a disadvantage.
