The practice of crisis/hostage negotiation is one that most police regard as perhaps their most invaluable non-lethal weapon in combating criminal and terrorist acts. Yet, much is still unknown about the actual communicative dynamics of these negotiations. This addresses these shortcomings by serving as a forum for the research and practical insights of a cohort of internationally recognized experts of crisis negotiation.
