The abundance of comparisons between west and east has always been at war. From which utensils is the most effective way to eat, to which entity is best to follow. Chinese Conflict Preferences and Negotiation Behavior: Cultural and Psychological Influences, by Kirkbride, Tang, and Weswood (1991), is no different. This article presents a comparison of the differences in conflict management and negotiation styles between Westerners and Easterners. Kirkbride, Tang, and Westwood have presented a compelling comparison of Anglo-American methodologies of negotiation and conflict management with Chinese methodologies. For the purposes of their article, Anglo-Americans include Canada, Great Britain, America, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand (Kirkbride, Tang, & Westwood, 1991). Although the article was written to determine the methodology of the Chinese, only those from Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, and the mainland are studied (Kirkbride, Tang, & Westwood, 1991). The basis of their perspective comes from Chinese values. These Chinese values ​​are harmony, collectivism, conformity, power distance, holism, contextualism, time, face, shame, reciprocity, and guanxi (Kirkbride, Tang, & Westwood, 1991). The purpose of their article is to analyze the depth into which traditional Chinese cultural and psychological values ​​influence their strategies towards conflict resolution and negotiation. It was written to further improve data collection on Eastern and Western differences in the social sciences. Two of the authors, Kirkbride and Tang, have previously engaged in a similar study aimed at determining preferred style of conflict management and denial, and are currently undertaking an updated study for the same topic. The thesis of this article is “ Mento…half of the paper… to incorporate to better support one's position on how the Chinese conduct negotiations and move away from conflict. Works Cited Fontana, F.
