Summary:"Charles Cogan's study will help France's negotiating counterparts understand how and why French officials behave as they do. Cogan first explores the cultural and historical factors that have shaped the French approach and then dissects its key elements. Mixing rationalism and nationalism, rhetoric and brio, self-importance and embattled vulnerability. French negotiators often seem more interested in asserting their country's "universal" mission than in reaching agreement. Three recent case studies illustrate this distinctively French melange."--BOOK JACKET.
