  • Forecasting Conflict Management in militarized interstate disputes
    Conflict Management and Peace Science, 2015
    Co-Authors: Andrew P. Owsiak
    Abstract:

    Is predicting the international community’s cumulative response to an interstate dispute possible? Can we predict what form Conflict Management will take and how it will evolve over the course of a dispute? I employ the concept of a Conflict Management trajectory to test a forecasting model of Conflict Management. This model accurately predicts Conflict Management behavior and uncovers numerous novel insights—including that the initial intervention indicates clearly the resources the international community is willing to spend on managing the dispute. These results confirm the need to theorize further about Conflict Management interdependence and offer clear advice to the policy community.

  • Conflict Management trajectories in militarized interstate disputes a conceptual framework and theoretical foundations
    International Studies Review, 2014
    Co-Authors: Andrew P. Owsiak
    Abstract:

    When multiple third parties intervene diplomatically in the same dispute, are their interventions interdependent? Although theoretical and empirical evidence suggests that they are, most Conflict Management research fails to theorize about and model this interdependence directly. The current project breaks with this tradition by advancing the new concept of a Conflict Management trajectory—the idea that Conflict Management efforts evolve over the course of a Conflict and successive efforts inform one another. After discussing the rationale for and theoretical foundations underlying trajectories, I construct these trajectories empirically, summarize and discuss some of their characteristics, and create a typology to describe and organize them. In the process, I demonstrate that trajectories possess properties that clearly differentiate them from isolated interventions (the alternative) and display numerous general patterns. Each of these, in turn, suggests that trajectories deserve greater study as we seek to integrate and expand our understanding of international Conflict Management.

  • The Conflict Management Efforts of Allies in Interstate Disputes
    Foreign Policy Analysis, 2013
    Co-Authors: Andrew P. Owsiak, Derrick V Frazier
    Abstract:

    Motivations for Conflict Management are rarely discussed in terms of commitments that potential third-parties have toward one or both disputants. The current study addresses this lacuna by examining how alliance designs affect Conflict Management behavior. Specifically, we argue that third-party states' willingness to manage interstate Conflicts depends on both the existence and depth of an alliance relationship. We test this argument using data on Conflict Management within militarized interstate disputes during the period 1946–2000. We find that allies are more likely than non-allies to manage their partner's disputes. Underneath this aggregate relationship, however, we also find that the depth of alliance commitments strongly influences this behavior. Deeper commitments – both across and within alliance types – increase the likelihood of Conflict Management significantly

  • the moderating role of cultural intelligence in the relationship between cultural orientations and Conflict Management styles
    Journal of Business Research, 2018
    Co-Authors: Andrea Caputo, Oluremi B Ayoko, Nii Amoo
    Abstract:

    Today's international corporate environments demand that employees are culturally intelligent for effective engagement in cross-cultural interactions. This study examines the moderating effect of cultural intelligence (CQ) in the relationship between individual cultural orientations and the choice of a Conflict Management style. A sample of 403 employees completed self-report measures of all study variables. Findings confirmed the impact of cultural orientations on Conflict Management styles, namely avoiding, forcing and problem-solving. Moreover, findings confirm the existence of a moderated effect of some facets of cultural intelligence on the relationship between individual's cultural orientations and Conflict Management styles. The study offers novel empirical evidence for the important role that cultural intelligence has in managing Conflict for increased productivity and performance in diverse international environments.
