IACM Journal: Negotiation and Conflict Management Research

Negotiations and Conflict Management Research (NCMR) is the official journal of the International Association for Conflict Management. NCMR publishes fundamental research that focuses on theory and research on conflict and conflict management across levels, including organizational conflict, interpersonal conflict and inter-group conflict, and across a range of domains including environmental conflict, crisis negotiations, political conflict and cross-cultural conflict, as well as formal and informal third party intervention, including mediation and arbitration. The journal will welcomes both full-length theory and empirical papers, as well as shorter “research notes” appropriate for single study empirical papers. Diverse methods and approaches are also welcome.

More specifically, we seek to publish papers that:

• initiate, extend, validate or redirect a line of inquiry
• provide a theoretically driven review and integration of an important research area draw upon and integrate perspectives from multiple disciplines
• provide new empirical findings
• make theoretical contributions
• employ diverse methods

In addition, NCMR seeks to provide high quality and timely feedback to scholars, and provide scholars with individualized mentoring through our mentoring program, where early career scholars can be mentored and receive feedback on their manuscripts prior to submitting their work for review. In addition, we seek to reward scholarship with our annual ”Best Paper” award.
