In the field of negotiation theory, the Harvard Project's Getting to Yes and Donald Trump's The Art of the Deal occupy polar opposition locations on a spectrum considering distributive and integrative negotiation theories. Getting More Back offers case studies from international negotiations in which the author participated that can help illustrate the tactics and theories of each type of negotiation and to make students in law, business, and other fields into better negotiators. Among the case studies are lessons drawn from negotiating denuclearization with North Korea, political reconciliation in Libya, human rights improvements in China, Israel-Palestinian peace processes, and UN negotiations over surveillance, privacy, atrocities prevention, LGBT rights, and other fundamental freedoms. By illustrating these lessons, Getting More Back strengthens the tools that students and teachers of negotiations should have in their negotiating toolbox. Perhaps most importantly, Richardson provides concrete examples of how a negotiator is likely to Get More Back for their clients if they deploy these tactics, rather than having them used against the negotiator.

In this paper, we will explore the political construction of washoku by analyzing Japan's recent strategy of gastronationalism and gastrodiplomacy. We will argue that the definition of washoku, as inscribed in the UNESCO's International Cultural Heritage List in 2013, is the result of a process of invention of tradition whose aim is to homogenize and preserve national identity and project this identity abroad. While emphasizing the role of food as an essential element of national identity, we will also show that the promotion of washoku is also motivated by the need to address several issues of broader domestic politics. Starting from the assumption that Japan's low food self-sufficiency rate could be improved only by increasing the demand for Japanese food, the government implemented a strategy of promotion of washoku at home (gastronationalism) and abroad (gastrodiplomacy) in order to increase both the domestic consumption of traditional food and the export of agrifood products.

History does not run in straight lines. Instead of inevitable progress, what we get is more often false starts, blind alleys, random events, good intentions that go wrong. Robert Cooper's incisive and elegant book is therefore not a continuous diplomatic history. Richelieu and Mazarin inhabited a 16th-century world we can hardly imagine today, but it is from their time that we can begin to see the outline of today's Europe. The Ambassadors includes a brilliant analysis of the people who built the Western side of the Cold War. Henry Kissinger is a pivotal figure in the post-war world, and his story is in some ways typical: he failed in his most important aims and succeeded in ways he never expected. Robert Cooper's pieces together history and considers the illuminating fragments it leaves behind.

This edited volume provides the foremost analysis of public diplomacy's relationship with hegemony, morality and power, through an analysis of the peripheries of the international system where power dynamics are most apparent. This examination of public diplomacy's frontiers will aid scholars in acquiring greater critical understanding of the values and intentions that are at the crux of this area of statecraft. The chapters within this book discuss public diplomacy in relation to the notions of hegemony and counter-hegemony found within the work of the Italian philosopher Antonio Gramsci. For the authors, public diplomacy is not just a political communications term, it is also a moral term wherein actors attempt to convey a sense of their own virtuosity and 'goodness'. The book thereby provides fascinating insight into public diplomacy from the under-researched angle of moral philosophy, arguing that public diplomacy is one of the primary vehicles through which international actors engage in moral rhetoric to meet their power goals.
