Analyzes how the evidence from the Gulf of Mexico and Colorado River cases relates to the four realms of scholarship underpinning and combined through this book’s interdisciplinary research: public dispute resolution, adaptive leadership, collaborative decision-making, and political communication. These four areas, while intersecting in many ways, are often discussed, both in academia and the general public, separately from one another. Exploring the two cases through the combination of several propositions from these four areas, contributes to the development of a number of interdisciplinary practices that can assist stakeholders in the active resolution of transboundary energy, water, and environmental disputes.

After laying out steps to assist and enhance transboundary natural resource management negotiations, the focus here will be to envision, in broad terms, how these steps might be effectively explored, refined, practiced, and disseminated collaboratively between interdependent developed and developing countries. The aim is to give an example of how to bring together various disciplines in order to build capacity at the intersection of public dispute resolution, adaptive leadership, collaborative decision-making, and political communication....

Outlines the significance of re-thinking the negotiation, leadership, collaborative decision-making, and political communication strategies we rely on to resolve transboundary water and energy conflicts, as it pertains to shaping the economic, environmental, and social prosperity of the communities we belong to. Emphasizes an interdisciplinary research approach to ascertain whether the manner in which governments, industry, and NGOs conduct transboundary resource management negotiations alters the prospects for finding effective agreements. Such factors include: how they frame a dispute; who they send as representatives; what preparatory work they do; what principles they use to structure the negotiation process; how they define their interests and estimate those of the other side; what ground rules they establish; how they respond to unpredictable and uncertain circumstances; by which criteria they create and distribute value; how they insulate the agreement against spoilers; and how they structure follow through.

This paper aims to identify the challenges in the implementation of shared decision-making (SDM) when the doctor and the patient have a difference of opinion. It analyses the preconditions of the resolution of this difference of opinion by using an analytical and normative framework known in the field of argumentation theory as the ideal model of critical discussion. This analysis highlights the communication skills and attitudes that both doctors and patients must apply in a dispute resolution-oriented communication. Questions arise over the methods of empowerment of doctors and patients in these skills and attitudes as the preconditions of SDM. Overall, the paper highlights aspects in which research is needed to design appropriate programmes of training, education and support in order to equip doctors and patients with the means to successfully engage in shared decision-making.
