Political polarization in the United States and internationally has increased enormously in the past decade, resulting in legislative impasse in some countries, political instability and partisan re-alignment in others, and decreased levels of communication, trust, and cooperation across partisan lines in schools, communities, and across the nation.

The Negotiation Within: The Impact of Internal Conflict Over Identity and Role on Across-The-Table Negotiations
This article argues that negotiators\u27 experiences of internal conflict over their identity and role - what we term the negotiation within - has a significant impact on across-the-table negotiations in the legal profession and in business.

It concludes with a three-stage prescription on how to manage such conflicts described as Mirror work, Chair work, and Table work
