However, a search of titles from one of the top negotiation journals during the past 5 years yielded no papers that included <i>practice</i> in the title. Moreover, a Google Scholar search with the keywords <i>negotiation</i> and <i>conflict</i> and <i>practic</i>e in the title, only yields 27 results, and 3 results if the search is limited to the past 5 years. This suggests that academics may need to consider lessons from practice as valuable for advancing negotiation theory. Nonetheless, practitioners often consult with academics for advice on conflict and negotiations. Practice can be a resource for investigating the limits of current negotiation and conflict management theories. Practice can also help academics engage in a reality-check process that contributes to our understanding of the phenomenon. This issue is intended to bring various types of practices closer to ongoing and planned research. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:150%'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:150%'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>The call for papers is focused on contributions from practice to current negotiation/ conflict management theory and research as well as from research to practice.
