Résumé

Negotiations that produce durable outcomes are rather rare in international negotiations, which are often viewed as a zero-sum game in which one’s success is tied to the other’s loss. The Iran nuclear deal, negotiated in 2015, is a case in point. The original deal was the product of unbalanced negotiations. The deal’s compliance pull resulted weak, making it relatively easy for President Donald Trump to pull the US out of the deal in 2018. The search for more constructive ways of negotiation led to the path that became this book. An example of inclusive negotiations that produce durable outcomes was found in Oman, a historical seafaring nation, situated on the southeast corner of the Arabian peninsula and bordered by the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean. In Oman, water is the lifeblood of all life. Inclusive agreements over irrigation channels developed into Omani culture over a considerable time span from custom, Ibadi Islamic principles and tribal law. The Omanis became known as the people of consultation, Ahl Al-Shura.
